5th Sunflower Run: ‘Running Against Cancer’

Latest news
Together in the fight against cancer

Our trainee occupational therapists and physiotherapists from the Heimerer Schools in Dresden, along with a number of teaching staff, took part once again in the 5th Dresden Sunflower Run at Sportpark Ostra on 10 June 2026.

The Sunflower Run was co-hosted by local hero and one of the world’s best 3,000-metre steeplechase runners – Karl Bebendorf. Together with around 1,500 other runners, Team Heimerer took to the starting line for a good cause and sent a powerful message of solidarity, unity and commitment. 

We’d like to say: Thank you to all participants for your commitment and support! 

Thanks to your efforts, €500.00 was donated to Saxon Cancer Research.

Every kilometre run counted and helps to give hope.
