Relay for Life North Canterbury raises $85k
Participants walked multiple laps of Rangiora's Dudley Park on Saturday (April 1) to raise funds for Relay for Life North Canterbury and the Cancer Society.
The annual event aims to celebrate cancer survivors - no matter where they are in their journeys - and those who care for them.
Organisers said their efforts had "blown us away".
"To all the people who have supported our participants, whether it is financially, emotionally, physically, or on the side lines - thank you so much for supporting your people," they said in a Facebook post.
Organisers confirmed $85,000 had been raised as of Monday.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
