Did you know?

In 2023 alone, an estimated 42,000 people received a cancer diagnosis in Ireland. However, thanks to earlier detection, improved care and targeted treatments, more people are surviving cancer than ever before. Today, there are over 200,000 cancer survivors in Ireland, and you can read about their stories below.

Hear from cancer survivors about the power of your support

All funds raised will help us provide funding to families facing a childhood cancer diagnosis, free counselling, lifts to treatment, research to find better treatments for cancers, and so much more. The Irish Cancer Society typically receives only 5% of its income from the Government, so thanks to your generosity, we can continue to provide vital free services and support to ensure nobody in Ireland faces cancer alone.
