Cllr Parry added: “I am hoping that the people of Caernarfon and the surrounding areas will come and support this worthwhile charity.
“The ‘Race for life’ run is well established in Caernarfon now for many years and it’s hoped that this walk could be the start of us men joining in raising funds for good causes.
