These grants are specifically aimed at grassroots community organisations that are already working with and supporting local communities. We want to help organisations build cancer awareness and early diagnosis messaging into the activities they already deliver, using the trusted relationships they have with local people.
We recognise that community organisations are often best placed to reach people who may experience barriers to accessing health information and services, and we're keen to make this funding as accessible as possible.

Alongside the funding, successful organisations will have access to Cancer Research UK's Talk Cancer training, approved awareness resources, campaign materials and ongoing support to help them feel confident in sharing important health messages within their communities.

We're particularly keen to reach smaller, grassroots organisations that may not traditionally apply for health related funding but are already doing fantastic work in their communities.

The closing date is 6th November.

From a weekly grocery shop to booking a holiday, it all helps generate free donations.
