Cabaret vs Cancer is now signed up to benefit from AmazonSmile, a scheme which enables Amazon customers to donate to a charity of their choice every time they shop, at no extra cost to them.

When you shop at www.smile.amazon.co.uk you will have the same shopping experience as at Amazon.co.uk, but with the added bonus that Amazon will donate a portion of the purchase price to us. This has raised $62 million for 23,000 charities in the US.

You can select Cabaret vs Cancer as your chosen charity and this will raise funds for us each time you shop with AmazonSmile. All you have to do is log in through AmazonSmile, select us as your charity, then when you make a purchase, a percentage of your spend will be donated to Cabaret vs Cancer.

Thank you for your support and happy shopping!

​

We are over the moon to welcome to the team Lilly Snatchdragon as Cabaret vs Cancer's newest Trustee.

​

Rose Thorne, founder of Cabaret vs Cancer said "Lilly is a force to be reckoned with and her sheer determination and drive will bring great things to the work of the charity.  She has been a supporter of the charity for a long while, but under the title of Ambassador we know she will make sure the world knows how to donate!"

​

On her appointment, Lilly said "After watching my father die of stomach cancer in Laos on January 4th 2016 where there is hardly any form of support for cancer patients or the family, my sister and I were his nurses.  We washed him,  helped him go to the toilet and slept at the end of his bed to help him when he was vomiting.  For me, not having any idea what was happening to my father and having to google 'stages of death' was incredibly traumatic.  

Being a Trustee for Cabaret vs Cancer means a lot to me.  Being able to do something/anything to raise money so others won't have to experience what I went through is important."

​

​

The trustees are pleased to have awarded the following grants in the second grants awards of 2017:

​

Macmillan Cancer Support - £4,000

Cancer Research - £4,000

St Joseph's Hackney (St Michael's End of Life Ward) - £5,000

St Joseph's (Child Bereavement team) - £2,000

​

A huge thunderous thanks to our Edinburgh Ambassador Julie-Ann Laidlaw and her team for collecting a cracking £2,695.50 from 'Five Thirty cabaret', Le Monde cabaret' and 'Vive La Variete' plus the bar staff at the New Town Theatre for donating all their tips on the last night!

We are so excited to celebrate our first birthday, and so proud of everything that everyone has done over this first year.  To celebrate this special occasion we are so happy to announce that Bettsie Bon Bon will be joining our Ambassador team!  

Bettsie said "I have been so proud of the cabaret vs cancer team and all they have done for a cause that we have all been personally touched by. I'm over the moon to be asked to be an ambassador of the charity and excited to work at growing the charity."
