Our story

Join us for free! Relay For Life brings communities together to fundraise for Cancer Research UK and beat cancer. Teams of friends, families and colleagues fundraise for research to save and improve lives, then unite as a community at an event to honour everyone affected by cancer and celebrate the progress we’ve made. The event is focused around a relay where team members take turns completing an activity, whether that be laps of a track, walks through a park or some other challenge to show that step by step, we’re beating cancer. Every Relay For Life includes games and music from local performers, and a Candle of Hope ceremony to give us a moment to reflect and honour everyone affected by cancer. Simply join your local Relay by starting a team, joining an existing team or by taking part as a Survivor. We exist to beat cancer and to make breakthroughs tomorrow, we need your help today.
