Events and Challenges

Fundraise for us

There is currently a growing head and neck cancer crisis in the UK and we aim to make a profound impact on that crisis through our research collaborations, grant funding, grassroots initiatives, community outreach and awareness raising. Fundraising events for Oracle Head & Neck Cancer UK help us make a difference in tackling this crisis.

Head and neck cancer is often called one of the forgotten cancers and receives £40 less research funding per patient than some other cancer types.  At Oracle Head & Neck Cancer UK we urgently need your support so we can continue to fund new treatment discoveries for head and neck cancer. We cannot do this without your help.

We’ve never needed you, our wonderful supporters, more than we need you today. Please get involved in fundraising events for Oracle Head & Neck Cancer UK and donate what you can to support us in our mission.

Get involved in fundraising

Fundraise for us 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.
