Ways to Give

Cherry Lodge Cancer Care relies on the support of the community to be able to offer its many services, free of charge, to people affected by cancer. Please help us maintain this vital community resource. You can give to Cherry Lodge in various ways.

Donate Money

Cherry Lodge is heavily dependent on single and regular donations from individuals, trusts and companies. We need this financial help even more than we used to because we no longer receive any funding from NHS and local government grants.

You might like to respond to the annual Chairman’s Appeal, to give in memory of a loved one, or to make a donation to celebrate a birthday, anniversary or other milestone. Increasingly, people are donating money to Cherry Lodge in lieu of sending Christmas cards.

By making a donation, you can really make a difference, enabling us to meet the rising demand for our services and helping to safeguard our future.

Donation Opportunities and Service Costs

Most of the money that Cherry Lodge receives is currently put into our general reserves to be spent as and when it is needed. However, there is an option for a donation or grant to be designated for a specific purpose (provided that this has first been agreed by the Board of Trustees).

Leave a Legacy

At some stage we all need to think about the often difficult subject of wills and bequests. By making a bequest to Cherry Lodge Cancer Care, you would be able to help us carry on providing services to our Members long into the future.

If you might be interested in leaving us a legacy, please call 020 8441 7000 and ask to speak to Margaret Clark, Chairman of the Trustees.

Attend Events

One easy and enjoyable way to give money to Cherry Lodge is to buy tickets for our Fundraising Events. At some events, you may be able to help us even more by spending generously on raffle tickets and other money-raising activities.

Support our Shop

We need an ongoing supply of goods for our shop in Church Passage, Barnet. By donating items for sale – and by purchasing goods in our shops – you can turn unwanted clothing, bric a brac, etc. into money to pay for Cherry Lodge services.

Volunteer

Another important form of giving is the gift of time. You can help us by becoming a Cherry Lodge volunteer.
