Race For Life is about to return in 2021 but with a difference.

Runners are being encouraged to tackle the Race for Life at Home event this April.

With Race for Life events postponed until the Autumn because of the pandemic, organisers at Cancer Research UK have lined up an event on Saturday, April 24, in partnership with Tesco.

Race for Life at Home asks people to run, walk or jog 5k in their local area in April and raise money.

In the meantime, why not re-live some memories of runners from the borough who did their bit for charity each year.

Take a look at our selection of Race For Life memories from the past.
