Cancer Research UK - Relay for Life, Your Team, Your Town, Saving lives together

This blog is to show the Candle bags that have been decorated on behalf of people who are unable to make it to the Relay for Life starting on the 17th July 2010 at noon. It is also to diary donations and anything else in relation to the Candlelight Ceremony which will take place at 10pm on the evening of the 17th July.

Last years Relay for Life Candlelight Ceremony

Below is a clip from 2009's Candle light Ceremony where Mel Rout sang her rendition of Snow Patrol's 'Light Up'. A beautiful and poignant moment during the Relay that brought everyone there even more together than they were, if that is possible!

Mothers, Fathers, Sons, Daughters, Cousins, Aunts, Uncles, Grand parents, Grand children, Friends and Carers together as one.

Thank you for our first donation

Today ( well yesterday really considering the time now) saw the first donation for a decorated Candle bag :-) This was at a Cancer Research UK collection event at a local Morrisons. I myself was only there for two hours but some volunteers were there for most of the day.

Also we received a donation of a £15 gift voucher from Tracy Watkiss who has an online craft shop and will shortly be opening a craft shop in Plymouth. The voucher is to be used in the new craft shop. http://www.justtracys.co.uk/

During the collection today a little girl called Maria emptied her purse into the collection box. She said she wanted to help make people better. What a beautiful soul.
