- 1975: We fund the first Macmillan nurses and, in 1986, the first Macmillan doctor.
- 2003: We implement our social care strategy, supporting carers and helping people financially.
- 2009: Our integrated phone service launches, so people affected by cancer can call just one number 0808 808 0000 for all support.
After having a family member diagnosed with cancer and a member of my family being part of It's Just A Six Letter Word, I decided that I would try and help out with the calender wherever I could. I soon found myself making their website for them and helping out in any way possible. I have now designed the old website and now this new one, I have also designed the new forum. I have found the people working on It's Just A Six Letter Word very friendly and think that the cause for which we aim to raise money for is a worthy cause which helps so many people.
