The fight against cancer is not fought only in hospitals or treatment rooms. It is fought in homes, in communities, in quiet moments of fear, and through the support of people who refuse to let patients and families face the journey alone.

That message was at the heart of the launch of Relay For Life 2026, hosted by the Jamaica Cancer Society under the theme ‘Wild For A Cure’.

The event, scheduled for Saturday, June 6 at the Police Officers’ Club from 4 p.m. to midnight, marks the 25th anniversary of Relay For Life in Jamaica, a movement that the organisers say has become a symbol of courage, remembrance, survivorship, and community support.
