How funds raised for Mullet May-hem make a difference
We understand how cancer can affect people’s whole lives – we provide support for treatment, how they’re feeling, their work, and their money. And, after more than 100 years of caring, we understand that the most important thing is to treat people as individuals, not patients.
From the moment of diagnosis, whenever we’re most needed, we’re here to support people however they need us to.
The money you raise will help people living with cancer right now to live life as fully as they can.
We’re here for you too. For information, support or just someone to talk to, call us free on 0808 808 00 00 (7 days a week, 8am-8pm).
This is how your Mullet May-hem donation could help Macmillan
Everyone living with cancer deserves the best possible healthcare and support and we will make every penny you raise count for something in someone’s life. Your fundraising will help Macmillan to provide personal support from the moment of diagnosis and whenever we’re most needed, from help with money worries, campaigning for better cancer support to simply being a listening ear.
