Casey 2024

The Casey Relay For Life volunteer organising committee are excited to invite you to join in all the fun and festivities that Casey Relay is renowned for at its beautiful new venue, Casey Fields Regional Athletics Centre, Cranbourne. To secure this premier facility, Casey Relay For Life has been rescheduled to 26 & 27 October 2024.

Relay For Life is a fun and moving experience that raises vital funds for the Cancer Council’s research, prevention and support services.

Relay is a chance for the community to recognise and celebrate local cancer survivors, those going through a cancer experience and their carers, to honour and remember loved ones lost and to raise money to help save more lives.

Join the thousands of Australians who take part in Cancer Council’s Relay For Life each year and make strides towards a cancer free future. Start or join a team in the 2024 Casey Relay today!
