More about Macmillan in Staffordshire

Macmillan works with the NHS and other health and social care partners to improve the lives of people affected by cancer.

Being diagnosed with cancer can bring financial difficulties. People may have to give up work or face increased fuel bills or travel costs. Macmillan can help to cover expenses or to finance breaks for patients and their families.

We have helped hundreds of Staffordshire people to manage the costs that cancer can bring. In 2010 we gave £126,809 to 386 beneficiaries in Staffordshire. This helped:

• 168 people with the cost of fuel to keep warm
• 25 people with the cost of a stair lift 
• 72 people with the cost of travel to get to their treatment 
• 160 people with the cost of clothes 
• 76 people with the cost of new beds and bedding.

It’s these practical things that Macmillan understands. We talk with people affected by cancer and find out what is important to them.

Macmillan is campaigning for a better deal for people in Staffordshire affected by cancer. We want everyone with cancer to receive the same level of care, regardless of who they are and where they live. Together we can challenge inequalities, push for change and make sure that cancer stays a priority for the government. 

How you can help us raise money in Staffordshire

• By making a donation: Every donation, big or small, makes an essential difference to people living with cancer.
• By organising an event: Why not climb Mount Snowdon? Bike from Lands End to John O'Groats? Tackle The Three Peaks challenge? Run in the many local marathons?... These are just some of the events that supporters have done this year for Macmillan in Staffordshire. We will help with any events you might like to plan.

‘It was such a struggle paying for prescriptions that I’d stay awake at night crying. The success of Macmillan’s campaign will help thousands like me. I’m thankful I was able to play a part in making change happen.’
