SURVIVORS 2025
Our survivors are all so important
They are the reason we are here today
The funds we raise provide the treatments
To ensure they enjoy more life day after day
Our committee and teams work so hard
They raise so much money each year
They tirelessly give so much of their time
So to them we all raise a cheer
The last 9 years have been truly amazing
With the funds we have raised for our cause
It has helped to support so many people
Also it helps to put lots of cancers on pause
Another year is now upon us
Our relay weekend is already here
Lets hope we exceed all our targets
To give lots more donations this year
Our marquee provides lots of comfort
With a chance for us all to recall
On how fortunate some of us have been on our journey
While there are others who have had no luck at all
There are some who have only just started
So they do not yet know what they face
But there are lots who will be pleased to support them
To help them along on their new challenging race
For everyone there is nothing at all that can be certain
So we must all make the very best of what’s there
To hope there are treatments that will help us
So we put all our trust in those specialists who care
So thanks for your support once more
Our relay for life gives hope to us all
It also provides us with lots of new friendships
Also it gives a real reason for us to stand tall
Lets hope our support now continues to grow
So we can put lots more in the bank
Then we will all meet up again next year
Because there are so many we still need to thank
So now each day just look in the mirror
Tell yourself “just how lucky am I”
Remember all those we have lost in our lives
Even if those fond memories will make you cry
Now as we move from day to day
Positive thoughts are really important to share
So the statement I’ve posted after this verse
Was sent from someone “Who has already been there”
“THE LIFE IN FRONT OF YOU IS FAR MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE LIFE BEHIND”
“STAY STRONG”
