Zimpapers public relations and communications manager (Digital and Publishing Division) Pauline Matanda said: “Zimpapers Cancer Power Walk is here, bigger and better.
“This time around we are doing physical walk in Harare, Bulawayo, Mutare, Masvingo, Gweru and Kariba.
“We have extended the walk to Masvingo and Gweru as we have only been doing in Harare, Bulawayo, Mutare and Kariba.”
