Friday 17 September 2010
Our annual 20 mile walk through late night London takes place on Friday 17 September and gives hikers exclusive access to some of London’s most iconic buildings while raising vital funds for our network of Maggie’s Centres across the UK. We’ll also be introducing our first ever 10 mile hike taking place on the same night to give everyone the chance to be part of London’s most original Friday night.
Last year hikers raised a staggering £689,000 for people affected by cancer. Please help us beat that by signing up and encouraging your friends, family and colleagues to join in too. To register, click here.Keep Maggie's Running

Maggie's Merry Messages
Christmas 2010
In 2009 Maggie’s launched a fun and innovative Christmas Campaign, which will save you time, money, do your bit for the environment...
Maggie’s Merry Messages encourages people to write their Christmas messages to friends and colleagues on a large, specially-designed, festive poster in place of sending Christmas cards. People can write their Christmas message on the poster for all to see, making a donation to the charity in the process. The poster can be displayed on a notice board, in a staff room or canteen so everyone can view it.
Any group of people who send cards to each other can get involved, whether it’s a company, club, hospital department, place of worship, school, or even a council department.
Call Vicki on 01792 285682 if you would like to take part in the campaign this year.A HUGE thank you from Maggie's!

A huge thank you to everyone who made 2009 such a successful year!
In particular, I would like to thank The Lord Mayor of Swansea 2008/2009, Gareth and Carol Sullivan who chose Maggie’s as one of his charities and donated an amazing £23,034 to our appeal!
