£1,000 is just 10 times £100!
£1,000 could pay for about five Macmillan palliative care nurses for a day. They help terminally ill people, and their families or carers, cope with the diagnosis and support them so they can continue with their normal activities.
£1,000 could pay for a third of the build costs of a Macmillan Information Point. The Point allows people to easily access Macmillan information resources.
£1,000 could pay for the translation of two and a half of our cancer publications into Welsh.
The cost of travelling to hospital for regular treatment can have a serious impact on a family’s finances. £1,000 could pay for at least six Macmillan Grants that cover the cost of a person’s travel to hospital for treatment.

“Just wanted to say thanks and well done to you both and the rest of your team for organising a great event in NY. We thoroughly enjoyed it and it was great that you created such a team spirit to help all the runners and their guests get the most out of a memorable weekend.” Steve Bristow
“It is such a great charity that raising money is easy, and the organisation of events is brilliant for runners – so a pretty good combination if you are looking to run any event for any charity, even if you don’t have a natural affiliation to Macmillan, which of course lots of us do.” Alex Popplewell
So join Team Macmillan today and help us help everyone affected by cancer!
