How to Help

You can help beat the scourge of cancer in Scotland. The CMCRF urgently needs funds to support projects like those described on this website. Please act now to help make new and significant inroads into a nationwide problem.

You can send a donation, either by post, perhaps ‘in memoriam’ for someone special; or you can donate online. Please makes cheques or postal orders payable to 'CMCRF' and post to:

Clerk Maxwell Cancer Research Fund
14 India Street
Edinburgh
EH3 6EZ

Legacies

Please think of CMCRF as you write your will. If you already have a will, adding a legacy by way of a codicil is easy: consult your solicitor for advice. Legacies to charities such as CMCRF are free of inheritance tax.

Raise funds. Run a marathon; arrange an event: perhaps a ceilidh or a lunch or coffee party – or bag a Munro! Or just get sponsorship for something you have always wanted to try. Opening your own webpage to help with fundraising is easy!

Keep in touch with the website. Ask the office for leaflets. Tell your friends.

CITY CANCER SURVIVOR HELPS RAISE £11,000

Marnie Fraser

Marnie Fraser, a young Aberdeen student, has conquered cancer and turned her focus to fund-raising for cancer research. One project was a concert in aid of the Clerk Maxwell Cancer Research Fund’s work at Aberdeen University on a new MRI scanner.

More than 430 people turned up to the concert at the Forum in Aberdeen, and several Aberdeen firms helped with sponsorship. "I was delighted with the number of people who made the effort to come", said Marnie."My goal was to raise £5,000, so it’s completely surprised me."

The 24-year-old recently won a year-long battle with osteo sarcoma which led to major surgery and the replacement of part of her left leg. Marnie’s fundraising proceeds go towards the University’s Clerk Maxwell-funded low-field MRI project.
