RACE for Life in Southampton is the largest single event of its kind in the country.

On Sunday July 13, thousands of women will gather to raise money for Cancer Research UK.

It will be a day of high emotion - loved ones remembered and survivors celebrated coming through the disease. There will be great sadness at the loss of so many and immense joy at what can be achieved when people unite for a common cause.
