Schools Purple Day has been running since 2016 when just 6 local schools took part. We have gradually build our numbers up and 2024 will be our best year yet. 

All monies raised will help to support the amazing work of Cancer Research UK as part of Relay For Life which 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. At Relay For Life we remember loved ones and celebrate the tomorrow’s made possible. Together we are beating cancer. 

How does the money you donate make a difference? Your donation will help to fund long-term research. 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.
