Get Involved
Oracle Head & Neck Cancer UK is the leading Head and Neck cancer charity in the UK, and our vision is to ensure everyone has the best chance of surviving Head and Neck cancers across the UK. But we can't do this without you!
By choosing to fundraise for Oracle you are supporting a group of cancers that has a real lack of awareness and receives less than 2% research funding. We simply could not do this without the generosity and support of our supporters.
Fundraise for us
Do it your way, whether that's taking on an epic challenge like climbing a mountain or hosting a bake off. Whatever you decide to do, we are with you all the way!
Some ideas to get you started...
- Get creative! Can you bake, crochet, knit, paint? Use your creativity to raise money, you could sell your finished goods or host workshops to pass on your skills.
- Host a social! From quizzes to open mic nights, there is a whole bunch of ways you could get your local community together to put the fun in fundraising!
- Donate your birthday! Instead of presents and cards, why not set up a Just Giving Birthday Fundraiser and ask your friends and family to donate the cost to Oracle HNCUK
- Get moving! Run, cycle, walk or swim in one of our organised events below or take on a fitness challenge of your own
- as well as UK-based and International excursions through Global Adventure Challenges.
