Dorset Cancer Care Foundation Providing financial support to Dorset residents who are experiencing financial hardship due to cancer

The Dorset Cancer Care Foundation provides financial assistance to Dorset residents and their families who are experiencing financial hardship due to cancer. The DCCF also occasionally offers cancer-related financial support to local support groups, organisations, hospitals, and hospices. We do this in the fastest and simplest way possible: The applicant completes an online form outlining their condition and needs. All requests are put to our Board of Trustees every two weeks and a decision is made within 48 hours of submission. DCCF operates on a trust basis and does not request financial evidence from any of our applicants. Awards are granted to successful applicants and monies deposited into their bank account between 2 and 5 weeks of the application being submitted. The Dorset Cancer Care Foundation offers awards to help within the following areas (this is not an exhaustive list):
- Transport and parking costs during treatment
- Overnight accommodation during treatment
- Counselling
- Minor household modifications needed due to illness
- Respite support
- Domestic help needed due to illness

🏃‍♀️❤️ SHE’S TAKING ON 10K… AND IN MEMORY OF HER UNCLE SIMON! ❤️🏃‍♀️

A HUGE shout out to one of our amazing ambassadors, Sam Bumford, who is taking on the Run Bournemouth 10K this weekend to raise vital funds for The Dorset Cancer Care Foundation! 🙌🎉

And she’s doing it for a very special reason. ❤️

Running in memory of her Uncle Simon, Sam is lacing up her trainers this weekend to help support Dorset residents and families facing the financial pressures that can come with a cancer diagnosis.

It’s a challenge fuelled by love, remembrance and an incredible desire to make a difference. 🥹💗 We’re so proud to have Sam as part of our DCCF family!

💗 CAN YOU HELP SAM REACH HER FUNDRAISING GOAL?

Every donation, big or small, helps us provide grants to local people who need a little extra support when life gets tough. From essential household bills to specialist items and practical everyday needs, your kindness can make a real difference.

👉 Please donate and support Sam’s amazing challenge here:

🩷☕ PINK PRIZES, COFFEE & CAKE, AND A CAUSE CLOSE TO OUR HEARTS! ☕🩷

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and we’re turning up the pink to raise awareness and help support local people facing the financial pressures that can come with a cancer diagnosis. 🎀💗

Come along to our next charity coffee morning at Jenkins & Sons for a lovely morning of coffee, cake, friendly faces and a fabulous raffle packed with gorgeous pink prizes! 🌸🎁

📅 Tuesday 13th October
⏰ 10am – 12pm
📍 Jenkins & Sons, Bank Chambers, 7-8 Penn Hill Avenue, Poole BH14 9NB

🩷 Every cup, every slice and every raffle ticket makes a difference!

Your support helps The Dorset Cancer Care Foundation provide grants to local residents who are struggling financially following a cancer diagnosis. That could mean helping someone afford a specialist mastectomy bra, covering essential household costs or even getting a broken washing machine repaired when money is already stretched to the limit.

Because when cancer turns life upside down, it's often the everyday expenses that become an extra worry. ❤️

So grab a friend, pop the date in your diary and come and join us. Whether you're stopping by for a cuppa, trying your luck in the raffle or simply showing your support, you'll be helping make a real difference to someone in our Dorset community. 🩷

🎀 Wear a little pink, enjoy a little cake and help us spread a lot of hope!

We can’t wait to see you there! 💗

Coach House Fitness is taking on the Dorset Plane Pull 2026!

On Monday 31st August, we're swapping barbells for a Boeing 737 as the Coach House Fitness team takes on one of Dorset's most unique fundraising challenges!

We'll be joining forces to pull a Boeing 737 a full 50 metres to raise money for the incredible Dorset Cancer Care Foundation, helping local people and families affected by cancer when they need it most.

This isn't about being the strongest—it's about pulling together for a fantastic local cause.

If you'd like to support us, we'd really appreciate a donation, no matter how big or small. Every pound goes towards helping local families across Dorset.

We'll be sharing plenty of training updates (and probably a few aching legs afterwards! 😅)

💙 Please donate if you can. https://www.justgiving.com/page/coach-house-fitness-planepull?utm_medium=FR&utm_source=CL
