Volunteer

Our volunteers are invaluable to Breakthrough Cancer Research.  Without their dedication, offering time and support, we would not be able to raise vital funds to advance and deliver new cancer treatments for patients.

No matter how much, or how little time you have to spare, we’re always looking for helpful and reliable volunteers to join our team. Whatever your motivation, you can be sure your efforts will make a real contribution to cancer research.

Volunteering with Breakthrough Cancer Research is a great way to meet new people and do something gratifying at the same time.

We have many opportunities for volunteers to get involved, including:

  • office administration – mail shots, data entry, call downs
  • assisting with the organisation of fundraising events
  • assisting with church gate and street collections
  • selling Breakthrough Cancer Research Christmas cards / raffle tickets
  • organising your own fundraising events
  • spreading the word at work or to your family and friends about the groundbreaking work being carried out at Breakthrough Cancer Research.

If you are interested in volunteering with us please call us on +353 21 422 6655  or email [email protected]

 

SPEAK OUT

We are an Irish medical cancer research charity focused on funding cancer research to improve cancer care and survival.  We want to make sure that we continue to support research that is important for people with cancer and their families.

So, we are asking you, members of the public, for your opinion.  You do not need to have been affected by cancer to take part.



What would taking part involve?

We want people to give their opinion.  You can do this in several ways, such as, taking part in discussion groups with other interested people, or after a short training course (3 hours) give your opinion on research ideas or information campaigns. This would involve giving some of your time voluntarily.

If you would like to take part, please complete this form. There are no right and no wrong answers.
If you have any questions, please contact us:

"It is important the direction of our research remains applied.  Thus we will not become emotionally removed from those afflicted by cancer and ensure it is the patients and their families who benefit from our research endeavours."

Our Founder Prof. Gerry O'Sullivan

Corporate

Corporate giving has already played a huge part in our success, bringing eight new treatments from the lab to the patient clinic.
