Special Events

Do you want to show your support of The Christie but organising your own event or taking up a sporting challenge is not for you?

The Christie organises a wide variety of special events through which you can pledge your support and you can learn more about the work of The Christie.

Join us at our annual Christmas concert or attend organised events such as ladies lunch or our Christie Ball.

You can also learn about new treatments and developments at our quarterly Supporter Seminars where leading scientists and clinicians provide a fascinating insight into their area of expertise and advances in research.

Ladies Lunch

We're inviting ladies throughout the North West to spread a little glamour from June 2012 and organise a ladies lunch event during the summer to raise money for The Christie. Why not support one of these lunches in your local area? Details will follow nearer the time.

If you prefer to arrange your own lunch click here for resources and details on how to go about planning one.

Supporters Seminars

Supporters Seminars are an opportunity for you to hear about the work going on in the hospital from day to day and to learn about the projects that your generosity helps to make possible.....

Our next Supporter's Seminar is being held on

Wednesday 16th May 2012

Professor John Radford, Consultant in Medical Oncology

"Improving outcome for people with cancer - The importance of clinical research"

Venue: Education Centre, The Christie, 1:30pm registration, 2pm start

The Christie Ball

Our 2012 ball will be held in the autumn and details will follow nearer the time.

Last year a host of stars came to support The Christie at the Star Ball which was held on the 15th October 2011 at the Hilton Manchester Deansgate. Over 380 people attended and it was a night packed full of entertainment and celebrities. The funds raised from this event will go towards developing a new unit for our teenage and young cancer patients.

Christmas Concert

We will hold our annual Christmas concert in December 2012 and details of this will follow shortly.

Our December 2011 concert was a fun-filled night of festive carols, held at the Monastery Manchester on Tuesday 13th with over 450 people attending. We were joined by "England's winning tenor" Martin Toal, school choirs from The Ryleys and St Johns RC Primary as well as special guests including UK violinist Craig Owen and singers Kayley Rose and Helen England.
