Jersey Race For Life raises £100K for Cancer Research

A Race for Life event in Jersey has raised more than £100,000 for Cancer Research UK.

Almost 1,300 women took part in a three-mile (5km) walk, jog or run from St Helier to Bel Royal on Sunday.

Hayley Reynolds, from Cancer Research UK, said: "I cannot tell you how proud I am of everyone who took part."

"A lot of people think it is for breast cancer because it is a women only event but that is not true it is for every cancer out there," she added.
