Story

A book of 6 second class stamps costs £3.96.

A book of 12 second class stamps costs £7.92

And to collect all the donated cards and letters, our PO Box costs £5.44 week.

We are now all familiar with social isolation, but for many people living with cancer it is something that they live with throughout their illness. And at Christmas the isolation is especially keenly felt. Patients tell us that our letters and cards give comfort, if only for a few minutes, from the reality of their day. No one wants to be in hospital over the festive period, so if a letter can make the time spent there a little easier we want to send as many as possible.

Please add a stamp onto your Christmas list this year by donating to our postage appeal

About the charity

From Me To You

Cancer patients often feel socially isolated as friends drift away unsure of what to say. Letters are a wonderful way to keep people connected at a time when they feel most disconnected. Our events help people to find the courage to write, either to friends or for our Donate A Letter campaign.
