The annual Relay for Life took place at the Athletics Track at Peterborough Embankment on Saturday, with scores of people attending to mark their fight with cancer – or to raise vital funds to help others.
The event sees teams running, jogging or walking laps of the track over a 10 hour period.
The day started with the ‘Lap of Honour’ – where cancer survivors took part in the first lap of the day.
There were themed laps, fancy dress, music and a range of other activities taking place throughout the event.
To close the event, a special candle of hope ceremony was held, with a flute choir playing while candles lined the edge of the track.
Photographer David Lowndes was on hand to capture some of the images from an emotional day.
