Story

As a Trustee of this wonderful charity I'm keen to raise awareness and raise money! I'm going to dress as a postbox and walk the Stamford Town Trail on 1 October AND I'll post a donated letter to the charity in each postbox I pass. Let's hope for good weather!

Through letter writing workshops, our Donate A Letter programme, and hints & tips on how to reach out to your family and friends, we aim to reduce the social isolation and loneliness so often associated with cancer.

£3 puts stamps on five letters being sent to cancer patients receiving treatment at home.

£5 pays for the postage to send a pack of 20 donated letters to cancer patients in hospital.

£10 pays for a letter-writing kit for a new writer. Our writers generate, on average, 11 letters a year. Every year we deliver thousands of letters.

RCN 1183413
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.
