Hope Shines at Hills Relay for Life
The young Liston brothers were a popular face of this year’s Hills Relay For Life.
Relay veterans, the Baulkham Hills youngsters set up a stall selling cakes and pink lemonade.
Sebastian from Jasper Road Public School said he had been coming to Relay for several years to support his mum (Kylie) a breast cancer survivor.
Chair of Hills Relay For Life Community Committee Lisa Carruthers said the spirit of Relay shone bright despite the muddy and wet conditions at Castle Hill Showground on Saturday, May 21st.
“It was actually really amazing to see how many people persevered and walked during the day. `It was just so wonderful to see The Hills community spirit back in action. Our community committee is now planning next year’s Hills Relay For Life which will be our 22nd.”
So far the 2022 Hills Relay has raised $163,000 for the cancer research and support programs with more still to be banked.
More than 70 teams took part in the 24-hour event and there were 86 registered survivors and carers.
