Fundraising
Fundraising is vital to Cherry Lodge Cancer Care. Without it, we would not be able to offer free services to all our members. We raise funds in numerous ways, including putting on our own varied programme of fundraising events and helping others to raise funds for us.
You can help us by attending our fundraising events, by becoming a Cherry Lodge fundraising volunteer, by getting people to sponsor you to take part in an event or activity, or by putting on your own event on our behalf.
For more information about all aspects of fundraising, in the first instance please contact our Charity Administrator and Fundraising Events Coordinator, Tina Papasavva, on 020 8441 7000 or email tina@cherrylodgecancercare.org.uk.
Cherry Lodge Cancer Care fundraisers and third-party supporters work hard all the year round to put on an an interesting programme of events to help fund CL’s many services. See our Events Programme for dates and details. Next up will be the Summer Soulstice Big Payback event at the Black Horse pub on Bank Holiday Sunday 25th August, followed by a Cha Night in aid of Cherry Lodge at the Arkley Club on Friday 30th August.

Be a Fundraising Volunteer
We need enthusiastic and energetic volunteers to help with Cherry Lodge’s many fundraising activities. Volunteers in our regular Fundraising Team play an important role in the planning and running of our ongoing programme of events. Other volunteers, perhaps with only occasional time to spare, may offer to help out with specific events.
