– Charity of the Year partnership – support Hope for Tomorrow for a whole year or two, by engaging your colleagues/clients, to raise money.
Clothes Bank/Challenge – Do you have a space in your office car park to host a clothes bank? Or can you and your colleagues collect 20 black bags worth of clothes? For every tonne of clothing, Hope for Tomorrow could receive £250.
– Payroll Giving – Donating to us tax-free directly through your salary is the most tax-efficient way to give.

About Hope for Tomorrow
Cancer care can cause side effects from extreme tiredness and nausea, to forgetfulness and trouble concentrating. This is why at Hope for Tomorrow; we have made it our vision to enable cancer treatment to be delivered in the right way, at the right time, closer to patients.
We achieve this by operating 14 Mobile Cancer Care Units into the heart of communities throughout England, working in partnership with NHS Trusts, to enable patients to fit their treatments into their lives, not the other way around. We aim to give patients back the ultimate gift of time, so they can live a life outside of cancer.
We receive no government funding, so we rely solely on voluntary donations. Because of our supporter’s kindness, last year we were able to deliver over 24,000 patient treatments. Together, with our supporters, we drive cancer care forward.
The impact of ‘Elaine’ in Lincoln
Launched in 2014, ‘Elaine’ is the Mobile Cancer Care Unit based at Lincoln County Hospital and has helped thousands of patients receive their treatment in Lincoln. From April – September 2021, 1,610 cancer care treatments have been delivered to cancer patients who use ‘Elaine’. This couldn’t have been achieved without the amazing support from the community of Lincoln, helping to keep the wheels turning.
‘Elaine’ travels to five local hospital car parks in Spalding, Grantham, Skegness, Lincoln and Louth, delivering cancer care treatment, and without this Unit patients may have to travel considerable distances to receive treatment elsewhere. Worryingly, some people tell us that without our Units, they wouldn’t receive treatment because getting to hospital is too difficult. We want to make cancer care easy, convenient and less stressful for our patients.
