THIS year’s Race for Life is taking place at Hudson’s Field on June 29.

Women are being urged to join forces for Cancer Research UK’s annual event to raise money while showing support for those who have fought or are fighting the disease.

Race for Life, in partnership with Tesco, is a women-only series of 5k and 10k events that raise millions of pounds every year to help defeat cancer by funding life-saving research.

Last year, 2,300 took part in the Salisbury event, raising £116,000 and this year organisers hope even more will join in and help reach a target of £120,000. To enter, go to raceforlife.org or call 0845 600 6050.
