Relay For Life is a fun, outdoor and overnight fundraising event where teams of 10 to 15 people take turns to walk around a local oval. The event honours those whose lives have been touched by cancer.
Teams of 10 to 15 people take turns walking or running around a local oval to raise funds for cancer research, education, support services and advocacy. Relay is for young and old and you can walk as many or few laps as you like. It's not a race and you don't need to run.
A festival-style atmosphere is created around the event with participants being encouraged to pitch a tent, camp overnight and enjoy the community atmosphere. Participants are entertained with bands, food and fun.
All monthly meetings are held on the third Monday of the month at the Learning and Development Centre of Nepean Public Hospital, Somerset Street, Penrith, commencing at 6.30 pm.
