24.01.2022 It’s understandable to be anxious about visiting the doctor or attending follow-up appointments at this time, however detecting and treating cancer early can save your life. Health workers are doing everything possible to make care safe, so if you have any symptoms, don’t delay talking to a doctor: https://bit.ly/2Q2WDZJ #DontDelayGetChecked

21.01.2022 You’re invited to fight back against cancer online through Relay Australia! Due To COVID-19 a number of Relay For Life events in 2020 have unfortunately had to be cancelled. Whilst we are hopeful that the Murrumbeena event can go ahead in October, we would love to have you join us on the track this June by participating in Relay Australia. Through Relay Australia you can help us all move the virtual baton around the country, with every dollar donated moving it 1km. You can a...lso post photos and messages on our Tribute Wall to celebrate and remember your loved ones. If you choose to make a donation and would like this to be put towards your teams total at the Melbourne event this year, just fill in the ‘Team’ box on the donation form and we can arrange that for you. Together, let's make it to 20 laps by 25 June, and take a step towards a cancer free future. www.relayaustralia.com.au

14.01.2022 Given the current level of uncertainty around restrictions on events and public gatherings, Cancer Council Victoria has made the decision to cancel the Murrumbeena Relay For Life, which was scheduled for October. We truly share your disappointment, but the safety and wellbeing of the community, as well as that of volunteers and staff, are always the most important considerations for us. All your amazing fundraising, including registration fees, will be recognised this year t...o ensure they go towards funding vital services as soon as possible, but please be assured that all registrations will be rolled over to the 2021 event, so you won’t need to pay again to take part. Thank you so much for your patience and understanding. The ongoing support of the Relay For Life community has been as inspiring as ever. If you have any questions, please get in touch by emailing [email protected] or calling 1300 65 65 85.
