We will discuss with you what sort of volunteering best suits your skills and the time you have available. Our volunteers do all kinds of work, including: Helping with or organising fundraising events, including coffee mornings or tea parties Helping us cheer on Leukaemia UK runners at the London Marathon Offering a specialist skill, such as graphic design or photography Organising workplace fundraising, such as team challenges or charity days Who volunteers? Many people want to volunteer at Leukaemia UK because they, or someone close to them, have been affected by a blood cancer. They understand the importance of our work because they have seen its impact for themselves. Others simply want to get involved with a leading charity whose work is valued by so many. Supporter Joel had a very personal reason to complete the London to Brighton Cycle Ride last year to raise money for Leukaemia UK. He says: I know personally how terrible leukaemia is. In 1996 my wife Debbie was diagnosed and given five years to live. She has been in remission for more than 15 years and lives a full life. There is no way I will be able to repay that, but this bike ride was a little thanks for all Leukaemia UK's hard work.
