Raising Funds for Maggie's Cancer Center and Aoibheann's Pink Tie National Children's Cancer Charity
Maggie's Cancer Center: For 3 decades Maggie’s centres have been providing a unique evidence-based programme of support for people with cancer and their families from 27 centres across the UK.
Maggie’s professional cancer support specialists, psychologists and benefits advisors help people navigate the complexities of their cancer diagnosis through a personalised programme of support. Last year we supported over 340,000 visits from people with cancer and their families and friends.
Our centres are designed to be more like a home than a hospital, where people with cancer find the hope, determination, and resources they need to cope with one of the toughest challenges any of us is likely to have to face. They are places to find practical advice about benefits; places where qualified experts provide psychological support; places for people with cancer, their friends and family to meet people who are in similar situations to share experiences.
All our support is free of charge, and we welcome everyone – people with a current or past cancer diagnosis, their family members, friends, and those who have lost a loved one to cancer.
