Teams

Anyone can take part in Relay, regardless of age and fitness level.  Simply form a team of between 8 and 16 with family, friends or work colleagues, register and you're all ready to go. 

Registration is free for everyone and we ask that you and every member of your team aim to raise at least £200 towards life-saving research.

As soon as you are registered you can begin fundraising, this can include things such as raffles, quizzes, coffee mornings, the ideas are endless.  The Relay committee will support you and sometimes offer fundraising opportunities for teams.  Click here to register and follow the link to start a team.

Regular Team Nights are held  throughout the year.  This gives the opportunity to meet other teams and the Relay committee, find out about Relay, ask any questions and pay in any monies. Resources are also available to help with fundraising.

Over a weekend in July all teams come together for an overnight celebration.  Teams aim to keep at least one member on the track for the whole 24 hours, while all around them a party is in full swing. 

Join Relay For Life Ascot and be part of an international movement of over 4 million Relayers, taking part in 6,000 Relay For Life events across the globe.

A Team Captain's Story

Janet has been taking part in Relay For Life Ascot for the past 6 years.  She says: I am a Relay For Life team captain – why? Because like many other people I have seen family members and loved ones go through a cancer diagnosis.  Whilst obviously devastating for the individual it is also devastating for those close to them.  I always felt so helpless and one of the only ways I could help was to focus my energies in raising money for Cancer Research UK and Relay For Life is a Fun way of doing that.  The whole event brings you close to people who are either survivors or have lost someone very dear to them and its like a big family event.  Tears, laughter and wall to wall fun are the order of the 24 hours!  What’s not to love about Relay For Life and Ascot Relay is amazing
