Membership
The Cambridge Cancer Help Centre offers support to individuals and families living with Cancer. We receive no public funding and look to raise funds in a variety of ways.
Becoming a member is a great way to support your local Cancer Help Centre. We ask regular visitors to sign up and become a member of the Centre for a small fee.
Membership subscriptions help us to cover the running costs of the Centre. Our membership year runs from 1st May to 30th April annually. More details are available from the Centre team.
Individual / Team Fundraising
By choosing to support your local cancer support charity you are not only contributing vital funds to help local families but you are also importantly raising our profile so that more families newly diagnosed with cancer, know that we are here for them. So double thank you for thinking of supporting us!
We all know that we feel good when we help others. Whether its organising a sociable coffee morning to catch up with friends and colleagues, perhaps incorporating a fundraising element to a birthday party, or perhaps tackling a personal challenge (like a fun run or marathon) there are endless fun ways to raise important charity funds and make some lasting heart warming memories. Please contact us for ideas and support.
Remember if you are a UK tax payer we can claim Gift Aid of 25% on each donation – that’s £2.50 extra for every £10 which makes a huge difference – it all adds up!

Corporate and Trust Support
It is estimated that 50% of the population will receive a cancer diagnosis: that’s half of your workforce and customers that are likely to know someone in need of the CCHC.
For a small charity that relies entirely on donations, being selected as your Charity of the Year, or the chosen cause for staff fundraising activities, would make a huge impact on the development of our service. Please call the office to discuss how we can work together.

Volunteering Opportunities
We want to be available to help as many people as we can when they are in need. To help us achieve that, we are looking for volunteers to help out at the Centre and during events – we offer a range of opportunities and are always happy to hear from anyone wishing to volunteer their time.
If you are an experienced counsellor or therapist and would be willing to volunteer your services at the Centre, we would be very interested to hear from you. Please email the Centre if you would like to discuss this further.
If you, or someone you know, has the skills and knowledge to fulfil any of these roles (or would like to volunteer in a different role) and shares our passion to help those affected by cancer, please do get in touch or share the details with friends.
Fundraising
The Cambridge Cancer Help Centre is a charity and we receive no public funding. We therefore rely entirely on membership subscriptions, donations and other fund raising efforts to carry on our work of providing practical and emotional support to those who come to the Centre.
We rely entirely on voluntary contributions to carry out our work. We are immensely grateful to all our supporters, both individuals and organisations who make it possible for us to continue to support local families living with a cancer diagnosis.
