Thanks to our dedicated supporters and volunteers, we’ve been at the heart of progress that has seen cancer survival in the UK double over the past 50 years.
Would you be interested in taking part in The Big Skip, or being a member of Rope4Hope? We would love you to join us as we endeavour to bring together people, up and down the country, to skip their way for life-saving research.
Below are a few examples of how you could use your skills to get involved:
Be a part of our first national committee
Co-ordinate with venues to host a skipping event
Be a regional lead in your area for ‘The Big Skip’
Use your networks to secure event locations for skipping
Thinking creatively to identify new ideas and opportunities
Communicating and relationship building with people in your community

Encouraging others to support Cancer Research UK

We’re looking for organised, self motivated people who have the ability to delegate and a genuine passion and enthusiasm for fundraising and the work of Cancer Research UK.
This a home based role. Part of your role will include you being ‘out and about’ in the community e.g. attending collections, booking venues, sourcing prizes, promoting your event.
