Women's Running proudly announces cancer support charity Look Good Feel Better (LGFB) as their Regional Charity Partner for the 2018 race series. Look Good Feel Better is the only charity that helps women and teenagers manage the visible side effects of cancer treatment.

Finding out you have cancer is life-changing and the stress of the appearance-related side effects can feel overwhelming. For over 24 years the charity has been dedicated to improving the wellbeing and self-esteem of people undergoing treatment for any type of cancer and do this through free confidence boosting Workshops and Masterclasses which are held across the UK. The Workshops are led by beauty trained volunteers who share makeup and skincare advice, teaching vital skills such as how to draw on missing eyebrows and eyelashes and combat changes to the skin. The sessions are also an opportunity for women to meet others going through a similar situation.

Watch ‘Voices of Look Good Feel Better’ to see how they help women to face cancer with confidence:

By taking part in the Women’s Running Race Series, you can use it as an opportunity to fundraise for Look Good Feel Better and help many more people face cancer with confidence. Funds raised by runners will go towards supporting local services held at the Velindre Hospital, Cardiff, Maggie’s Centre Nottingham and Milton Keynes Hospital - which every year provide much needed advice and support to hundreds of women living with cancer.

Sadly, 165,000 women are newly diagnosed every year in the UK, which means that demand for their services is greater than ever. Your support is vital to enabling the charity to reach many more people in desperate need of a confidence boost at a time when diagnosis and treatment has taken over their lives. Register to run your place for Look Good Feel Better and you will receive:

- Branded running vest so you look the part
- Dedicated fundraising pack to help you hit your target
- Training advice from the experts at Bannatyne Health Clubs to get you race ready
- Runners medal & goody bag when you cross the finish line
- On the day cheer team and charity hot spot
- Guaranteed fantastic race day experience
