There was a great turnout for the Relay For Life Donegal teams information meeting this week in anticipation of the thirteenth staging of the event.
Relay For Life Donegal returns to ATU Letterkenny on 24th May to raise funds for the Irish Cancer Society. The 24-hour relay is about supporting people affected by cancer, shining a light on survivors and remembering those we have lost to cancer.
The teams meeting on Thursday was a chance for both new and returning participants to understand the format of Relay For Life.
It’s not too late to get a team in the ring! If you have been thinking about joining Relay for Life Donegal, this is your chance to get involved.

The night also saw the launch of Roll Call For Relay 2025 – an exciting schools programme in partnership with Highland Radio presenter Lee Gooch that is focused on having fun, raising awareness and collecting just €1 per family for Relay for Life Donegal.
