The Christie charity provides enhanced services over and above what the NHS funds for more than 44,000 cancer patients treated at The Christie every year. Your support can help us to fund life-changing and potentially life-saving projects that will benefit cancer patients both now and in the future.

Joanne Fitzpatrick work in the finance department at The Christie for 30 years, and was director of finance since 2013. She sadly passed away in January 2022 after a battle with cancer. The finance team at the Christie are aiming to raise over £10,889 (the number of days she was employed by the Christie) in memory of Joanne.
