CanSupport organises a number of events each year to raise awareness of cancer, to publicise its work in the field of Palliative Care, in order to make new friends, to collect funds and to mark important anniversaries.

CanSupport celebrates the World Hospice and Palliative Care Day in October each year along with hundreds of other Palliative Care organisations around the world.

In November each year CanSupport marks Remembrance Day, when families get together to remember their loved ones lost to cancer.

CanSupport organises a major awareness event - the WALK FOR LIFE - in February each year. Thousands of people express their solidarity with cancer sufferers, survivors and all people engaged in the fight against cancer, by marching down Shantipath and by making a contribution to CanSupport's work.

In addition to these events, CanSupport organises three or four smaller fundraising events through the year. These events provide an opportunity for Friends of CanSupport to come forward and volunteer their time and energy and participate.
