Tips to survive the Mbombela CANSA Relay For Life
This is the 14th year RFL will take place in the city, and will again be held at Mbombela Stadium on the B field.
The CANSA Relay For Life (RFL) is coming up this weekend in full carnival flair.
It starts on Friday March 13 at 18:00 and continues until 06:00 on Saturday – giving those who work on Saturdays the opportunity to experience all the ceremonies before 24:00.
This event takes place to pay tribute to cancer survivors, caregivers and to remember those who have passed on from the disease. Relayers will have the opportunity to have access to free health screenings on the night. Remember that early detection is key to your health.

Since the RFL is held over 12 hours, there are a couple of things you need to keep in mind to make it a night to remember.
• Your camping site: bring your gazebo or tent, table, chairs and all your favourite “glamping” tools to ensure that you have a great Relay camping experience. Remember to decorate your site in true carnival spirit.
• Relay outfit: comfy shoes to walk the track, warm clothes for the early signs of winter, and some fun carnival outfits to show your support.
• Food and beverages: remember that this is a non-alcohol event, but you are welcome to bring your picnic baskets and cooler boxes with your healthy snacks, or to support the local food vendors, so remember to bring cash!
