Celebrating 10 years of partnership
Tesco and Cancer Research UK's Race for Life
Tesco are proud to have supported Race for Life for ten years, which has contributed to Cancer Research UK raising over £362m for the fight against cancer since the series began in 1994.
This year by working in partnership we hope to recruit 1 million women and raise £80million to fund life-saving work. So whether you're a Race for Life regular, or you're taking part for the first time, join the girls and sign up today to help us make this the biggest year yet.
What is Race for Life?
Tesco and Cancer Research UK's Race for Life is the UK's largest women-only fundraising event. Women of all ages and fitness levels come together to walk, jog or run 5 or 10k, have fun and raise vital money that will help beat cancer.
With over 300 events around the UK, there's bound to be an event near you. Simply choose your event to join the girls today.
Why join the girls?
For many people taking part, the events are a personal triumph over cancer. For others, it's a poignant mark of remembrance for those lost. Some are there simply to raise money for a great cause.
Every two minutes someone is diagnosed with cancer in the UK. Every £1 of the money you raise in sponsorship through Race for Life helps to fund over 4,000 researchers, doctors and nurses in their work to find a cure for cancer.
So join the girls and together we will beat cancer:
