FUNDRAISE

The success of Melanoma UK relies on the generosity of people like you who participate in fundraising events across the country. All events finance new initiatives to heighten awareness of melanoma skin cancer, as well as support Melanoma UKs projects to provide information and support to patients and their caregivers.

HOW CAN YOU HELP?

We know from our own personal experience, what a devastating disease melanoma is and our aim is to make sure that patients and families have got access to support and information when they need it most.

Regular donations are a vital source of support for our patient group and will help us to ensure a brighter future for melanoma patients, their families, and friends.

We are grateful for every bit of support that we get, no matter how small it may be.
