Cuppa for Cancer Care ®
What is Cuppa for Cancer Care?
Cuppa for Cancer Care is our annual flagship fundraising campaign – this time to be held between 2nd February and 8th February 2026. This is an opportunity to bring our wonderful supporters together as they host their own organised events, such as a coffee morning or afternoon tea, to enjoy a Cuppa and a slice of something scrumptious to raise funds for our mobile cancer care units.
Now in its fourth year, Cuppa for Cancer Care has become one of our most beloved charity campaigns, and each year we’re pleased to see how our supporters continue to embrace it, often with cake, competition and camaraderie!

How you can get involved
Afternoon Tea
Bring together your friends, family and colleagues to enjoy an afternoon of cuppas (and a slice of something sweet!). Raising £212 will give up to 20 cancer patients life-changing treatment on board one of our units..
Bake Sale
Host a bake sale in your community, why not challenge friends and family to a bake off? Incorporate fun party games like guessing the weight of the cake to help raise further funds.
Across 2024-2025 Hope for Tomorrow enabled the NHS to provide over 27,100 patient visits for cancer patients in local communities across England on our mobile cancer care units. Whether you’re serving a classic Victoria sponge or a gooey brownie, every donation enables us to do what we do best!
Coffee Morning
Whether it’s at home, at work or in your village hall, every £10 you raise could provide a cancer patient with vital pre-treatment tests on board our units.
Every Cuppa for Cancer Care event means that NHS cancer patients can receive their treatment closer to their home or work, instead of travelling lengthy distances to a hospital, saving them precious time and money something which is more important than ever. As you bring your community together, the funds raised will enable Hope for Tomorrow and our NHS trust partners to reach and support more cancer patients.
Bake a change and donate the cost of your weekly cuppas
Why not donate the cost of your weekly coffees from your local cafe? £25 during Cuppa for Cancer Care week could prove life-changing for cancer patients across the country.
