Make a real impact in your community
With 3 million people in the UK now living with cancer, Macmillan's role has never been more crucial. The support provided by Macmillan volunteers is integral to helping us to be there for people with cancer, in their community, from the moment of diagnosis and for however long they need us.
We offer a broad range of roles, enabling you to take control of your volunteering and fit it around your life. So, whether you want to give a few hours at a one-off fundraising collection or you want to take on an ongoing weekly commitment, we’ve got you covered. If you want to volunteer in your local community, we have a choice of roles. You’d rather volunteer from home? There are plenty of ways you can do that too.
