Fundraise for melanoma and help save lives

Every challenge taken on, every cake sold and every pound raised helps Melanoma UK fund vital work in awareness, education, support and research. When you fundraise for melanoma, you're helping us reach more people with life-saving information, support more families through diagnosis and treatment, and push for earlier detection of one of the UK's fastest-rising cancers.

There are lots of ways to get involved. You can start your own page for a run, walk, bake sale or sponsored challenge, take on one of our events and challenges, or remember someone special with a tribute page. However you choose to fundraise, our team is here to help you every step of the way.

Fundraise for Melanoma

Where your fundraising goes

The money you raise funds our work directly — including the research we support into better detection and treatment, the free advice and resources we give to patients and families, and the awareness campaigns that help people spot melanoma early. When you fundraise for melanoma research and support, you make a real difference to people facing skin cancer right now.

Ready to get started?

Setting up your own fundraiser takes just a few minutes. Start a fundraiser today, or if you'd rather give directly you can donate to Melanoma UK or join our weekly lottery. Browse the fundraisers below for inspiration — every one of them started exactly where you are now.
