Your support

All proceeds from our carol concert will support people with cancer. Coronavirus has had a huge impact on people with cancer. Screenings have been missed, treatments have been altered and surgeries postponed. For some there will be unbearable mental anguish as they learn that their cancer is no longer treatable or survivable. With your help, we can continue to provide emotional and practical support to everyone who needs it.

£15 can pay for someone to get one-to-one help with money worries from home.

£50 can pay for a family to attend one of our kids’ days, which helps children to understand and come to terms with mum or dad having cancer.

£100 can pay for three people to work through difficult feelings with a psychologist on the phone.

Help us to support families who need us this Christmas.

About the concert

Hosted by Fiona Bruce, our concert will include many of our favourite Christmas celebrations – carols to sing along with, fabulous readings from James Norton, Sue Perkins and Dominic West*, as well as musical performances from Lulu, soprano Ellie Laugharne, and internationally renowned baritone Roderick Williams OBE*.

We are also excited to present a brand new choral commission from Eric Whitacre – written for Maggie's and premiering at our concert. Classic FM's Alexander Armstong will also be hosting a live Q&A with Eric at 5.15pm, before the concert at 6pm.
