The annual Hornsby Relay for Life celebrates it’s 20th anniversary this November.
According to the Cancer Council, in Australia around 134,000 people are diagnosed with cancer every year and the stark reality is that 1 in 2 of us will be diagnosed with cancer by the age of 85. So, unfortunately, we will all feel its impact one way or another.
Bill Murphy is an honorary member of the Hornsby Relay for Life (HRFL) organising committee and has been a Relayer since 2016. Murphy has raised an estimate of $10K over this period. He and two of his family members are all cancer survivors.
The Hornsby Relay for Life 24-hour event will be held on the on the first weekend in November. It is full of entertainment, fun, food and the celebration of cancer survivors, their carers, and those undergoing treatment, and commemoration of loved ones lost to cancer
This year’s event will be kicked off at 9.15am on Saturday the 2nd and Sunday the 4th at Rofe Park, Hornsby Heights.
