At Myeloma UK we are passionate and dedicated about what we do and have a relentless commitment to achieving our goals. We receive no government funding and rely almost entirely on voluntary donations and fundraising activities.
We raise funds in many different ways - these include submissions to grant-making trusts and other funders, major donors, sponsored events such as marathons, community fundraising, direct mail appeals and donor recruitment campaigns.
