We are undertaking the challenge on behalf of the Adecco UK Group raising funds for one of its charity of the year -We are Macmillan Cancer support. Last year Adecco raised £19,133 and this year we are setting our sights on raising £52,000 - enough to fund a Macmillan Nurse for a whole year. The team undertaking the 3 peaks challenge are looking to significantly contribute to this target figure.;
There are 2.5 million people living with cancer in the UK today, and as more people live longer with their cancer, this number is set to grow to 4 million by 2030. Macmillan Cancer Support, believe no-one should face cancer alone. They provide vital support and improve the lives of people with cancer - from help with money worries and advice about work, to offering someone who’ll listen. Macmillan helps with all the things Macmillan Cancer Support want to make sure they can provide support to everyone who needs it, to help people affected by cancer feel more in control of their lives. Right from the moment a patient is diagnosed, through their treatment and beyond, Macmillan Cancer support are a constant source of support, giving you the energy and inspiration to help patients take back control of your life, and feel more like themselves again. Without support, cancer can feel like the loneliest place.
