CANCER RESEARCH UK PRESS RELEASE

GAYNOR’S DANCING HORSES TO MUSIC ARENA TOUR
IN AID OF CANCER RESEARCH
PRESS RELEASE
Gaynor’s Dancing Horses Arena Tour is a staggeringly beautiful show that is raising money for Cancer Research UK. The Gaynor’s Dancing Horses team is performing an exciting show, with a unique series of horses of all breeds and levels performing to LIVE music. Gaynor - a professional session musician - plays live, surrounded by keyboards in the arena.
The tour has dates at 7 leading arenas in England and Wales. The team includes 36 horses with 31 riders, Gaynor Colbourn - the co-inventor of the sport Dressage to Music - and a support team. The Gaynor’s Dancing Horses team are giving their time and expertise in order to raise as much funding as they can for the Cancer Research UK charity.
In the UK, roughly 400,000 people are diagnosed with cancer each year. Not every cancer cell in a tumour will have the same genetic mutations as a neighbouring cancer cell. That means that treatments can often kill one type of cell in a tumour, while other cells survive the treatment, allowing the tumour to grow again. Ongoing research is critical to understand more about best treatment. Cancer Research UK dedicates themselves to saving lives through research, influence, and information. They fund scientists, doctors, and nurses to help beat cancer, and provide cancer information to the public.
The show is an amazing experience, do come and help the Gaynor’s Dancing Horses team raise money to help Cancer Research UK save lives.
