What we do

Macmillan Cancer Support improves the lives of people affected by cancer. One in three of us will get cancer. We are all affected by cancer. We can help.  



Our ambition

We exist to help improve the lives of people affected by cancer, both those living with cancer and also their families and carers. Our primary focus for 2010 is to reach and improve the lives of everyone living with cancer.

Help and information

We help with all the things that people affected by cancer want and need - practical, emotional and financial support, information and specialist health care.

How we raise and spend our money

We rely on voluntary donations for 99% of our income, so we simply couldn't do what we do for people affected by cancer without that support.
