"Our events are fun, colourful, emotional and uplifting. Participants get together and remember loved ones lost or celebrate the lives of those who have survived.
"At the same time, they are helping to make a difference to people with the disease, right now.”

Hide AdCourtney added: “The Race for Life is a powerful, inspirational movement which unites participants in Luton with people across the East and the whole of the UK.
“Participants take part at their own pace – taking as much time as they like to complete the course.
"For some people, the Race for Life is literally a walk in the park. For others, it’s a jog or a run.
“Although ‘Race’ features in the name, our events are not competitive. Instead, ‘the Race for Life’ describes our doctors, nurses and scientists working as hard and fast as possible to help more people survive.”
The money raised helps to fund world-class research to help beat 200 types of cancer.
