One in three of us will get cancer and it is the toughest thing most of us will ever face. If you have been diagnosed with cancer, or a loved one has, you will want a team of people in your corner supporting you every step of the way. Macmillan Cancer Support provide practical, medical and financial support and push for better cancer care. That is why we at Balkan Holidays are delighted to be a supporter of the Macmillan Charity and hope, with your support, to raise funds for this worthy cause.

Since Jan 2012 when Balkan Holidays first partnered with MacMillan Cancer Support we have raised through customer donations, coffee mornings and various events nearly £26,000. Our target now is to try to hit £50,000 which is the cost of a MacMillan nurse for 12 months.

About Macmillan

What we do
Macmillan Cancer Support improves the lives of people affected by cancer. One in three of us will get cancer. We are all affected by cancer. We can all help. We are Macmillan. As treatments improve, more and more people are living with cancer in their daily lives. This means they need more than medical help, they also need practical, emotional and financial support.

We are a source of support
We are a source of support, helping with all the things that people affected by cancer want and need. It is not only patients who live with cancer, we also help carers, families and communities. We guide people through the system, supporting them every step of the way. We fund nurses and other specialist health care professionals and build cancer care centres. But we give so much more than medical help.

People need practical support at home, so we provide anything from some precious time off for a carer, to a lift to hospital. People need emotional support, so we listen, advise and share information though our cancer support specialists, website and trained professionals. People need financial help to cope with the extra costs cancer can bring, so we give benefits advice, and grants for anything from heating bills to travel costs. Together we listen, we learn, we act to help people live with cancer.

We are a force for change
We are a force for change, listening to people affected by cancer and working together to improve cancer care. People who live with cancer are experts by experience . Together we use this knowledge to make a positive difference to the lives of people affected by cancer. This could be anything from getting a coffee machine installed in a waiting room, to bringing about changes in the law.

We fight discrimination, from challenging unfair travel costs and insurance policies to improving the national benefits system. Together we challenge the status quo, we push for change, we lead the way.

We are Macmillan.
