This year will see the Relay for Life shifted for the first time.

The relay will take on a new 12-hour format on November 4 at Black Beach from 10am – 10pm.

Each year in the Illawarra thousands of people are confronted with a cancer diagnosis.

The Kiama Relay for Life is an opportunity to show your support for the many cancer patients and their carers in the community.
