Local Heroes

The effects of cancer are wide-reaching and devastating, but we can all make a difference and take action in the face of adversity. In recognition of our business sponsors who make regular donations, we’ve set up our Local Hero Partnership Programme.

Thank you for making a difference to the 1 in 3 people affected by cancer.

Could your business be a Local Hero?
