£33 could pay for a Macmillan nurse for an hour, helping people living with cancer and their families receive essential medical, practical and emotional support. They could explain to a person exactly what chemotherapy will mean for them, help them explain hair loss to their children so they won’t be frightened, refer them for counselling when things get a bit too much or celebrate with them on their one-year anniversary of being cancer free.
