Cancer Research UK has pulled its Manchester Shine fundraising event for 2013 after attracting 2,000 fewer participants than it had planned for, and will instead hold one big event in London to be more cost-effective.

Last September 3,000 people participated in the Manchester event, raising �600,000 for the charity. Some 10,000 took part in London, raising �2.6m.
