Celebrities supporting Cancer Research UK

Celebrity support is an important element in helping Cancer Research UK to raise vital funds and awareness for our world-class research work towards beating cancer. Here are some recent highlights from the Celebrity Team:

Stars add sparkle to environmentally-friendly Christmas cards

Popstars Westlife, McFly and Lemar, footballer David James, actress Arabella Weir and presenter Linda Barker have all personally designed unique Christmas cards that will be sold exclusively in Cancer Research UK shops this year.

McFly’s card, drawn by Tom Fletcher, features a rock star snowman, complete with punk hairstyle and a guitar, and Arabella Weir’s card, drawn with her eight-year-old son Archie, depicts a seasonable snowball fight.

All profits from the environmentally friendly cards will go towards funding Cancer Research UK's life-saving work and will be sold in 600 Cancer Research UK shops throughout the country. The cards will be sold in packs of 12 and will cost £3.49.
