Hear from others who've attended our events

I found the event extremely helpful in explaining how cancer forms and how it is treated today. The fact that it was told in layman terms made a huge difference to my understanding. I would love to go to other events to be updated. Thank you so much.

How do I register for an event?

You can register for an event by contacting your local Legacy Relationship Manager, their contact details can be found here. You can also register by emailing us at eventdelivery.operations@cancer.org.uk

Are events free to attend?

All our legacy events are free to attend and you won't be asked to make a donation. Events are very cost-effective to host thanks to the generosity of our venues.

Can anyone attend?

Whether you're considering leaving a gift in your Will or have already pledged to support progress, all events are open to those aged 18 and over.

Can I bring a guest with me?

You can bring guests to our events so they can learn more about the power of legacy giving but please let us know in advance so we can ensure there's enough spaces for them to attend

Can I book on to more than one event?

Spaces are limited and, as a charity, we’re committed to using our resources wisely so we can welcome as many supporters as possible. We invite you to attend up to two in-person events each year. For example, a local Inspire get-together and an Evening of Summer Music, or Evening of Festive Music, event.
