Why is the Macmillan Support Line so vital?
Cancer can leave people feeling like there's nowhere to turn. Whether it’s asking questions or just needing to talk, the Macmillan Support Line is there every single day for people living with cancer, including Christmas Day.
Our incredible Macmillan Support Line advisors provide confidential emotional support and practical information about all aspects of cancer, and interpreters are available for those who speak other languages including British Sign language.
£30 could help a cancer information and support team member answer a call.
£50 could help someone receive expert information and advice from a Cancer Information Nurse Specialist.
£100 could help five people receive much-needed emotional support from a Support Line Advisor.
Every pound you donate today will be doubled by Santander at no extra cost to you, up to a total of £100,000.
Make a donation today and whatever you give will go directly towards funding this vital Macmillan Support Line*.

Help me do whatever it takes.
No one should have to feel like they're alone when they're waiting for treatment. That's why advisors like me help over 9,000 people a year* cope with the emotional consequences of living with cancer.
Gemma's story
Macmillan Support Line advisor.
Cancer doesn't stop for Christmas. That's why advisors like me need to be there every day of the year from 8am to 8pm to make sure we can support everyone who needs us. I spent last Christmas Day explaining a complex cancer treatment in plain English. Donate now so I can be there again.
