It's Relay for Life, but not as you know it!

Venue: Hawke's Bay Regional Sports Park
Date: Saturday 17 October 2020

2020 has been a year like no other, and this year Relay for Life in Hawke's Bay will look a little different. It will still be an inspirational and fun event for the whole community, where we Celebrate with survivors, Remember loved ones lost to cancer and come together as a community to Fight Back against cancer.

But this year we've shaken things up! Teams will come down to the Sports Park and TOGETHER walk around the limestone path, completing fun, educational and poignant acitivites along the way. When you reach the end you will be able to enjoy the music, entertainment and food stalls, all with a fantastic community spirit.

You don't need a huge group to take part either - your team can be as small as 3 people! We encourage family/whanau, service and community organisations, corporate groups, local businesses, schools and sporting clubs to register for this event.

The event will begin at 12 noon and each team will be allocated a specific start time. These will be staggered throughout the day and we will endeavour to accommodate your preferred start time as best as possible.

Why do we need you?

Not only is it an amazing event, but Relay for Life is also a vital fundraiser for the Cancer Society’s work in the Hawke's Bay region. The Cancer Society is almost entirely funded by the generosity of its lcoal community. All funds raised will be used to support Hawke's Bay families living with cancer; with your help and support we’re hoping 2020 will make an even bigger impact on the fight against cancer.
