Join Relay For Life

Be part of something incredible

Relay For Life is a team fundraising event where team members take turns walking around a track to symbolize that cancer never sleeps. Each team is asked to have at least one participant on the track at all times.

Teams set up campsites and participate in fun activities, entertainment, and ceremonies throughout this family-friendly event.

Relay For Life in Rossendale is more than just a fundraising event—it's a chance for our community to come together to honor cancer survivors, remember loved ones lost, and commit to fighting back against this disease.
