Why not host a Great North Cancer Coffee Morning at your home, workplace, school or community venue. It can be a coffee morning or add a twist…. A BBQ, dinner party, curry night – you decide.
Keep it simple or maybe add a competition, bingo, a quiz, raffle or tombola to boost your fundraising. The choice is yours!

❌‼️ FACT is really bad at this!
Please let lots of people know 😳

As an 18 year old small local charity, one thing we have struggled with is establishing good regular giving donations.

Why?

❌ We don’t use 3rd party fundraisers
❌ We don’t cold call/knock on doors
❌ People assume their donation to larger charities is filtered down to us
❌ People assume we are funded by government, local authority, NHS etc

😓 In tough economic and uncertain times people and organisations watch their pennies- rightly so! It’s all about surviving.

💔In tough economic and uncertain times demand for FACT’s services goes up

😱In tough economic and uncertain times our donations go down

💰 So we’re not asking for grand financial gestures (although we will gladly accept them!!!)

🙏 We’re asking for £2 a month (or more if you choose) Less than your takeaway cuppa!

❤️💪🥰🙌 lots of people giving a little mounts up and enables FACT to plan ahead.

Everyone is feeling the pinch at the moment….. and FACT works hard to support those struggling financially because of a diagnosis of cancer by providing Kindness Kits of food, toiletries and household products.

However, rising diesel costs are putting huge financial pressures on FACT and this service …..

We appreciate that money is tight but if you can help us to literally keep this service and our van running, it would make a huge difference to the numbers of people and families we can support
