Charity Partner

Maggie’s is a charity that supports anyone living with any type of cancer at any stage. We also support people’s family and friends. We support in our centres and online. All our support is free, given by experts and professionals, and you don’t need an appointment or referral. You can just come in.

Our workshops, courses, one-to-one sessions, and support groups help people to change the way they live with cancer. We focus on the things that really make a difference, like help with money worries, stress, managing side effects, and relationships. Our support has been shown to improve physical and emotional wellbeing, and helps people take back control when cancer turns lives upside down.

By supporting Maggie’s you’re helping make sure no one need face cancer alone. 
Thank you.

Our Approach

Maggie’s is an independent charity that was set up 30 years ago. We work closely with the NHS but we’re not part of it and receive no government funding. Many of our staff are NHS-trained, and all our Cancer Support Specialists have expert knowledge about cancer and treatments.

At our centres, visitors can see Support Specialists, Psychologists and Benefits Advisors.
 Understanding every person’s individual circumstances is central to what we do and means we can guide them to the support that will help them the most.

We also offer free exercise classes, relaxation sessions, nutrition workshops, and bereavement support groups.

Our Centres

There are 27 Maggie’s across the UK, and 4 centres overseas. All are built on the sites of major cancer hospitals.

Each centre is thoughtfully designed to be calm and welcoming, somewhere very different from the clinical environment of the hospital. There are no reception desks and no clocks – instead we have comfortable sofas, a kitchen table and plenty of time.

Supporting Maggie's

By donating to Maggie’s, you’re supporting our Maggie’s Barts centre in the grounds of St. Bartholomew’s Hospital – a stone’s throw from St. Paul’s Cathedral.

Any donation makes a difference, for example:

£20 – means someone who’s just been told they have cancer can get immediate support from one of our trained specialists 

£30 – can give someone living with cancer who’s in financial distress tailored benefits advice from one of our advisors

£50 – pays for someone to see one of our clinical psychologists

£100 – can fund end-of-life support for someone living with advanced cancer.

Thank you.
