Adelaide Central Relay For Life Information Session

The Adelaide Central Relay for Life is the largest Relay event in the state, bringing together teams of all ages from across the community to unite in the fight towards a cancer free future.  Held over 19 hours from Saturday, 23 February until Sunday, 24 February, the event is an amazing example of hope in action and gives the Adelaide community the chance to celebrate, remember and fight back against cancer. At the last event in 2018 teams raised more than $150,000 to support Cancer Council SA and registrations are now open for 2019. We’d love for you to join us at an information session on Tuesday, 11 September at Cancer Council SA to find out more about the magic of Relay, how you can involved and how Relay supports South Australians impacted by cancer.

 

When: Tuesday, 11 September at 6.30pm
Where: Cancer Council SA, 202 Greenhill Road, Eastwood SA 5068

RSVP: RSVP via relay@cancersa.org.au or call 1300 65 65 85
