FUNDRAISING
ROYAL IDEAS
Worried you’ll make a royal mess of a bake sale?
There are plenty of other ways to raise money
for our lifesaving research; you’ll be crowned
fundraising hero in no time!
ROYAL TEA PARTY
ROYAL TREATMENT
Get the kettle on and bring out the bunting!
Feeling great in more ways than one!
What’s more quintessentially British than a tea
party? This is perfect for your workplace where
colleagues will be more than happy to donate
with promises of an afternoon tea or coffee and
a slice of cake.
Are you a trained beautician,
massage therapist or hairdresser?
Have your friends over and
give them a royal treatment
in return for a donation.
BUTLER FOR THE DAY
OFF WITH
THEIR HEADS!
Black tie is optional!
Give someone a taste of the royal life by waiting
on them hand and foot. Auction off your skills as
a personal butler for a day to the highest bidder.
NOBLE KNIGHT OUT
Gather the troops!
Why not host a royal themed quiz at your local
pub, community centre or anywhere else you can
gather! Fill a jar with pennies and have people
guess ‘How Many Queens?’ How about using the
'Guess The Name Of The Corgi Sweepstake' poster
on page 8? Raffles are great at a games night so
make sure to find the perfect prize fit for a queen!
Get the chop for charity!
A head shave is an exciting way
to fundraise and raise awareness
of cancer. You can even try your own
version of ‘trooping the colour’ by dying your
hair in royal colours a week before the shave!
DINE LIKE A KING
Dignified dinner party fit for a queen!
Organise a dinner party with cocktails, canapés
and cucumber sandwiches. Sell tickets to raises
funds or ask guests to give a donation they feel
best represents your efforts or culinary skills
(whichever you think is worth more!)
TOP TIP
Set a fundraising target
to keep you motivated
and to encourage
your supporters
to help smash
your goal.
The money you raise will help us to
accelerate our progress in the fight
against cancer to bring forward the
day when all cancers are cured.
RIGHT ROYAL FUNDRAISING
TO BEAT CANCER SOONER
We are the only ones fighting over 200 cancers,
including the one that matters most to you.
TAKE A LOOK AT SOME OF THE
PROGRESS WE’RE MAKING:
1960s
4 in 10
Our research during the 1960s
helped to detect breast cancer early.
A great influence on today’s breast
screening programme, it has saved
thousands of lives. Through research
into the benefits of tamoxifen after
surgery for breast cancer, survival has
dramatically improved. This has led
to a major breakthrough in the
way the disease is treated.
Our pioneering research
on radiotherapy which started
in the 1920s has influenced cancer
treatment worldwide. Right now,
around 4 in 10 who beat cancer
receive radiotherapy as part
of the their treatment.
8 in 10
Fighting childhood cancer –
we began funding clinical trials
in the 1980s to help improve
treatment for children with cancer.
Today, more than 8 in 10 children
survive for 5 years or more.
We’re determined to make
that 10 out of 10.
98%
Thanks to research,
the discovery of the drug
cisplatin has transformed
the treatment of cancer.
More than 98% of men with
testicular cancer are now cured,
thanks to cisplatin – a drug
that our researchers
helped develop.
Your fundraising will help bring forward the day
when all cancers are cured.
We have helped double cancer survival in the UK
in the last 40 years but our ambition is to accelerate
that progress and see three-quarters of patients
surviving cancer within the next 20 years. Your royal
fundraising will help us to achieve this – thank you.
In this pack you should find everything you need
for a successful royal fundraising event but if you
have any questions call 0300 123 1022 to speak
