Macmillan Cancer Support improves the lives of people affected by cancer. We provide practical, medical, emotional and financial support and push for better cancer care. We rely on voluntary donations for 99% of our income, so without our volunteers, groups, associations and fundraisers we simply couldn’t do what we do. Cancer affects us all. We can all help. We are Macmillan.

We’ve set ourselves an impressive ambition – our primary goal is to reach and improve the lives of everyone living with cancer.

Mcmillan Cancer Support are very proud to be Charity Partner for the Two Cities Boat Race 2010.
