About Relay For Life

Relay For Life celebrates the power of community fundraising in the fight to beat cancer. Teams of friends, families and colleagues fundraise for Cancer Research UK, then unite at an event to honour everyone affected by cancer and celebrate the progress we’re making. The event centres on a relay where team members take turns completing an activity – whether that’s laps of a track, walks through a park or another challenge – showing that step by step, together we are beating cancer.

Location

Embankment Athletics Running Track, Bishops Road, Peterborough, PE1 5BW

Relay For Life is open to everyone

There’s a place for everyone at Relay For Life. All you need is the desire to make a difference and be part of something special – no matter your age or fitness level.
