What we do
Macmillan Cancer Support is here to do whatever it takes to support people living with cancer.

We provide services
We provide services for people living with cancer at every stage of their cancer experience. We are here to provide emotional, practical, physical, and financial support.

We raise money
We're 98% funded by voluntary donations, so fundraising is essential to make sure we can deliver the vital support people living with cancer need.

We influence decision makers
We run public campaigns, build partnerships, and influence decision-makers on all cancer-related policies at UK-wide, national and local levels.


We support the cancer workforce
We provide healthcare professionals with up-to-date resources, tools, information, and training course to help them to support people living with cancer


We research into cancer care
It is important that Macmillan understands the numbers, needs and experiences of people living with cancer, so we can continue to provide our services and advocacy where they are needed most.


We help employers support staff
Macmillan at Work is our workplace training. It offers guidance and resources to help managers and HR professionals feel confident and equipped to support employees affected by cancer.
