Denplan Raises Thousands For Cancer Charity
Denplan, one of the UK’s largest dental insurance providers, has raised thousands of pounds for Macmillan Cancer Support.
More than 300 members of staff have been taking part in various events, from cake sales and raffles to physical challenges, to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support, a charity which provides valuable care and support for people affected by cancer and their families.
Steve Gates, managing director of Denplan, presented a cheque for £26,885 to Lisa Murphy, Macmillan Cancer Support fundraising manager for South East Hampshire and the Isle of Wight.
The company has pledged to continue to support the charity for the next two years and the money already raised will go towards helping cancer patients and their loved ones. Macmillan cancer Support provides information, advice and guidance for individuals and their families, as well as cancer care and emotional support; the work the charity does makes a huge difference to thousands of people in the UK every year.
As well as taking part in fundraising events, Denplan dentists have also donated to the cause.

Thank you for adding to the awareness and support of cancer. I’ve written two songs, one about cancer and one about going through trials and looking back on them. Reaching out for support and help, and the joy of having come up through affliction. Here are the links I hope you find them connecting, and possibly helpful.
