Registrations are open for the Cancer Council’s Mingara Relay for Life!

Relay is a fun and moving experience that raises vital funds for the Cancer Council’s research, prevention and support services. It’s a chance for the community to recognise and celebrate local cancer survivors, those going through a cancer experience and their carers, to honour and remember loved ones lost and to raise money to help save more lives. Join the thousands of Australians who take part in Cancer Council’s Relay For Life each year and make strides towards a cancer-free future. 


As well as a moving Candlelight Ceremony of Hope, there’s a heap of fun on the day: 

  • Live Entertainment all day and into the night
  • Box Car Rally
  • Motiv8 Sports Clinics
  • Camping
  • Kids Zone
