Hundreds of people will take to the streets of Waterford this weekend to raise funds for the Solas Cancer Support Centre.

'The Run & Walk for Life' marks its 10th anniversary tomorrow and is the charity's main fundraiser of the year.

It kicks off from Gladstone Street at 12.30pm before finishing with a family fun day in the People's Park.

This is the first year of the new 10km route.

Chairperson of the Board of Directors, Dee Jacques, says they designed the new route to coincide with the event's 10-year anniversary.

"2008 was the first year of the 'Run & Walk For Life'", she says, "it's a little step up for the walkers, but it's a real family event."
