Details of this weekend’s much-anticipated Relay For Life event at the Letterkenny Institute of Technology have been released.
The 24 hours event, which aims to raise funding to fight cancer and raise awareness of the disease, is even bigger and better than last year’s inaugural event.
As well as the featured 24 hour relay, there will be lots of entertainment, a mass and even a morning exercise class!
