How you can help

At Friends of ANCHOR, we never fail to be inspired by those around us fundraising and supporting the charity in any way they can.

They are the lifeblood of the charity and make our job the privilege that it is.

At the heart of Friends of ANCHOR is that sense of community; that we’re all in this together. So many united for a cause that is so personal and for the majority, has affected a loved one close to us.

Working in a small fundraising team of four, we feel in some way connected to everyone who chooses to support the charity. Through your involvement in Friends of ANCHOR, we hope you can really grasp that you are a part of something special.

Don't forget that every penny donated goes directly to the cause as all of the charity’s running and administration costs are fully funded by Balmoral Group.

What your support means

to the ANCHOR Unit

“Having worked with oncology and haematology patients for nearly two decades, I have seen a huge change in the way patient care and support is delivered, and this includes the provision from Friends of ANCHOR. Working in this environment, it’s so clear what the charity does for patients in the North-east. What’s wonderful is that everything raised is spent locally and you really see the improvements in local services.”
