Community / Nearly £100k raised by this year’s Relay for Life so far
THIS year’s Shetland Relay for Life has raised nearly £100,000 for Cancer Research to date.
The 12-hour relay around the Clickimin running track took place through the night, with Shetland News on hand to provide live coverage in the first few hours.
The organisers revealed at the end of the relay that £96,123.71 has been raised to date.
The relay teams are encouraged to continue fundraising right through to August, when the final total will be revealed.
Hundreds of people turned out to walk the track, despite the cold weather, with the relay running from 8pm to 8am.
