Action Cancer is a Northern Ireland cancer charity dedicated to saving lives and supporting people through cancer awareness, prevention, detection and support.

Our founder's vision for the future was that people in Northern Ireland would be free from the risk of cancer. At Action Cancer today our mission is to save lives, support and improve quality of life for people in Northern Ireland through cancer awareness, prevention, detection and support.

We are a local Northern Ireland charity - all our money is raised to provide services for local communities. Our dedicated team of staff and volunteers work across the whole of Northern Ireland helping to save lives and support people affected by cancer. To operate our services we must raise circa £4 million every year. We provide early detection and health promotion services, and counselling and support services for cancer patients and their families, thereby making a real difference to people who are affected by or living with cancer.
