CDUK's Donation to Macmillan Cancer Support

At this year's Annual Conference & Celebration, our charity partner was Macmillan Cancer Support. 

Macmillan helps people affected by cancer, through emotional support, practical assistance, financial aid, healthcare services, and advocacy to ensure no one faces cancer alone. Cancer is sadly something that's likely to have an impact on us all, in some way. Apparently, 1 in 2 of us (that's 50% of the UK population), will develop some form of cancer in their lifetime.

We’re proud to say that we were able to aid in their provision of support with an extraordinary £54,801 donation.

This amount was donated thanks to our impressive (and hard fought!) 3rd place finish in Colosseum Dental Group’s 2024 Bike4Good initiative: where all Colosseum Dental Group companies across Europe aimed to collectively run, swim and cycle 1 million kilometres in 2024.

In addition to our collective effort to secure the third-place spot, our conference delegates and practice teams demonstrated their care and compassion by contributing care packages for donation to Macmillan.

These packages aim to provide comfort and essential items to those battling cancer, and include items such as clothing, toiletries, comforting drinks and treats.

We’re so proud that our colleagues continually embody our values of Care, Collaboration and Entrepreneurship, and the combined efforts of every CDUK colleague in both the challenge and their kind donations reflect their commitment to care, to our patients and beyond.
