Friends of the Cancer Centre's work focuses on four key areas – patient care, patient comfort, research and cancer awareness – supporting the services provided by the Health Service.

The sponsorship money raised through this event helps fund the charity's vital support services to patients and their families across Northern Ireland.

How your support can make a difference:

£10 could provide tea and coffee for 43 people attending the hospital for treatment

£25 could help pay for 1 hour of support from a Friends of the Cancer Centre speciality nurse

£250 could help support a patient financially through the grant programme
