Group fundraising

You can join a fundraising group, or start your own

While many individuals every year fundraise for Cancer Research UK on their own, there are many more who fundraise as part of a group.

This type of fundraising is rewarding in so many ways. It’s sociable and a great way to meet new people, and furthermore the groups' efforts contribute directly to helping our scientists continue their research into the prevention and treatment of cancer.

Variety

The fundraising activities our groups undertake is very varied in both scale and frequency. While some groups meet every week to hold regular coffee mornings, others may meet up once a year to arrange a dinner dance or a cycle ride.
