Cabaret vs Cancer, supporting those affected by cancer.

Charity Fundraising Auctions
Every year, we run a variety of online charity auctions, helping us raise money to support those living with and affected by cancer. A charity fundraising auction is a great way to get your hands on sought-after items (we’re talking rare David Bowie merchandise, signed Kate Bush records, Star Wars collectables, and so much more), all while donating to a fantastic cause.
Every penny you bid helps us make a genuine difference to those dealing with a cancer diagnosis or navigating loss and grief.
Keep an eye out for our upcoming auctions and don’t miss out on some incredible items.

Charity auction FAQs
1. How do online charity auctions work?
Our charity auctions take place on Jumblebee. Just like an in-person auction, this online platform lets you add a bid to any items you like. If someone outbids you, you can up the amount. At the end of the auction period, the highest bidder will pay for and receive their exclusive item.
2. How do I pay for a winning lot?
Paypal is our preferred method. Please note: to help cover our fees, a 2.5% surcharge will be added to your invoice. If your auction lot is over £300, we are happy to arrange a payment plan.
3. What shipping options are available?
When you win a lot, you’ll pay for insured shipping through DHL, FedEx, or Royal Mail. We are happy to ship auctioned items internationally, but please note that we are not responsible for any local fees, customs charges, or import taxes.
If you’d prefer to collect your item in person in London, please feel free to get in touch, and we can arrange it.
4. Where does the money raised in a Cabaret Vs Cancer charity auction go?
We’re proud to be a grant-giving charity supporting independent charitable organisations across the UK. The money we raise through our online charity auctions is donated to a range of cancer support charities, including St Joseph’s Hospice, The Loss Foundation, Shine Cancer Support, and Cancer is a Drag.
