Myself and Isla are fundraising in memory of my dad, who unfortunately lost his battle with cancer in 2020. I watched helplessly as cancer slowly took away his health, body and mind. Cancer has robbed me of my dad and grandad. He has already missed out on so much, Charlie getting ready to do his GCSE's, Isla starting high school and the opportunity to watch Wynter grow up. I can't bring my dad back, but I'm running to help others, families and friends stay together for longer. Life is short.

Thanks,

Zoe.

Relay For Life celebrates the power of community fundraising to make breakthroughs happen. Across the UK and the globe, teams of friends and family fundraise for world-leading cancer research. Then, we unite as a collective at a weekend-long festival to honour everyone affected by cancer and celebrate the progress we’re making. Together, we remember loved ones and celebrate the tomorrow’s made possible. Together we are beating cancer.

How does the money you raise make a difference?

When you fundraise for Relay For Life, we fund long-term research. And when we fund long-term research, we make more discoveries. Over time, these discoveries make giant strides towards a world where everyone lives longer, better lives free from the fear of cancer.
