SUNDAY 14 MAY 2023

Guernsey’s own Race for Life is back for 2023, with the support of Cancer Research UK and a dedicated team of local organisers. Last year the event raised over £10,000 to help cancer research charities thanks to the 330 runners and walkers that took part.

‘With such an amazing turnout and money raised towards Cancer Research Guernsey/UK last year, we had to do it again this year. Everyone is welcome - men, women, children and dogs, we hope to double the number of participants and donations from last year,’ explains Dani Barnett from the organising team.

The course, starting and finishing at the KGV, will be the same as last year, with a 3km and 5km route around Saumarez Park.

‘We call it a race, but it’s whatever you want to do - walk, run or jog, as a challenge, with friends or as a family. More importantly, it’s a chance to get together, hold each other close, and cross the finish line in the fight against cancer, for the ones we’ve lost, the ones fighting, survivors, previvors and for our future,’ adds Dani.
