New Charity Partner

We are delighted to announce our new charity partner, Friends of the Cancer Centre and to let you all know more about the charity’s work and how our support will make a difference.

Friends of the Cancer Centre

For 35 years, Friends of the Cancer Centre has been dedicated to making a real and meaningful difference to cancer patients and their families across Northern Ireland. The charity is here to enhance the quality of patient care and support through our life-changing and life-saving work. We do this by funding additional nurses, supporting local research and providing practical support.

Based in the Cancer Centre at Belfast City Hospital, Friends of the Cancer Centre supports cancer patients and their families from right across Northern Ireland. Every year, Friends of the Cancer Centre invests over £1.2 million into local cancer services and support for patients and their families.

As Friends of the Cancer Centre does not receive any Government funding, it is through the support of organisations like Belfast Operatic Company, our members, contacts, friends and family, as well as people in the local community, that the charity is able to provide a range of vital services.

You can find out more about the charity’s work by visiting www.friendsofthecancercentre.com.
