Local resident Lisa Reed encouraged individuals and teams to start nominating and raising funds for the event.
“After seeing cancer affect our family members and friends we felt we needed to do something to help play a role in trying to find a cure for this disease.
“By participating in the Relay For Life, we can all help to raise vital funds for the Cancer Council to assist those within our community who are battling this terrible disease,” said Lisa.
In the Moree Plains Shire alone, 350 people are predicted to be diagnosed with cancer and 100 will die from the disease in 2016, according to the latest figures.
Moree community members can register for the Relay for Life online.
