Thank you - a message from our new CEO Gemma Peters

Gemma Peters Macmillan CEO

We couldn’t deliver our vital support without you, our incredible Macmillan community, who have given your time, energy, expertise, donations, experience, and support to make a difference for people living with cancer.

Since joining Macmillan as Chief Executive in January, I have witnessed your outstanding commitment and generosity which has helped us give people living with cancer the support that’s right for them.

In 2022, thanks to you, an estimate of over 2 million people were reached by our services:

  • Approximately 730,000 people received 'person to person’ support from one or more of our Macmillan Professionals or services.
  • 3,549 people living with cancer were supported by our incredible volunteer Macmillan Buddies.
  • Approximately 113,000 people received advice and support from our Macmillan Support Line, who responded to 274,140 calls, emails and web enquiries.
  • 48,593 people received a Macmillan Grant, to help with the extra costs that living with cancer can bring.
  • We helped many more people living with cancer and their loved ones through our information and support resources – both printed and online.

Thank you for the incredible difference you make. I look forward to seeing the impact we can have together in the years to come.

Warmest wishes,

Gemma Peters
Chief Executive
