Inspired by a young person I will be taking part in memory of my dad. In 2014 he was diagnosed with Stage 4 Multiple Myeloma. He put up a brave fight and was full of life and character until he passed in 2017. He was a great believer in living life to the full and he certainly did that with family and music being hugely important to him. In someway everyone has been affected by cancer, researchers are getting closer to better treatments and earlier diagnosis to give families better outcomes and more time with their loved ones.

To raise funds to continue the life saving research, we will be holding events, raffles, competitions and more to reach our target.

Relay For Life celebrates the power of community fundraising to make breakthroughs happen. Across the UK and the globe, teams of friends, families and colleagues fundraise for world-leading research to save and improve lives, then unite at an event to honour everyone affected by cancer and celebrate the progress we’re making to beat it. Here's how the money you raise powers progress:£60 could buy a microscope lens, allowing our scientists to focus on the small details that could help us beat cancer.£2000 could fund the CanRisk project for one day, which is developing a way to accurately predict people's risk of developing cancer so we can spot the disease earlier.When you fundraise for Relay For Life, you’re helping to bring about a world where everybody lives longer, better lives, free from the fear of cancer. Thank you for your support.Together we are beating cancer.
