About Cancer Support UK
Cancer Support UK exists to tackle the profound sense of isolation many people experience after a cancer diagnosis. While diagnosis and treatment can have significant physical impacts, the emotional toll can be just as challenging, leaving many feeling alone at a time when connection and understanding are essential. The organisation is dedicated to ensuring that anyone affected by cancer feels supported, understood, and never alone, from diagnosis through treatment and into life beyond.

Through practical and emotional support, Cancer Support UK meets a largely unmet need. Its Cancer Kits, thoughtfully created with input from people with lived experience, provide comfort and reassurance at a critical moment, while its Cancer Coach services offer ongoing guidance to help individuals navigate life after treatment. Alongside this, the organisation works with businesses and the health sector to improve support for those affected by cancer. With millions of people in the UK living with a diagnosis, the charity's mission is clear: to reduce loneliness and ensure no one faces cancer alone.

Indian colleagues and volunteers deliver impactful education, health, protection and economic empowerment programmes - the ladder needed by those we seek to help to overcome the barriers they face. Working in large cities and in rural villages, with young children and new mums, with women who have experienced exploitation, and families facing discrimination and prejudice, we work to champion those society sidelines, including those from low caste and tribal backgrounds.

• Overseeing our content management - reports, videos, images and stories
• Supporting fundraising with appeal copy and materials for donor campaigns and reports. 

We are a small happy team with a big heart for the work and this is really important to us, as is our Christian motivation.  If you work for DFN you will join a committed team who pray for our work and believe everyone is created in God's image.  You will be the sole employee devoted to marketing and communications but will work closely with the CEO and colleagues. 

The role is broad and we appreciate that you may not have all the skills we are looking for but if the work motivates you, our culture appeals and you have some sound experience please apply.  We can supplement skills with training, outsourcing and volunteer support, as required.   The role is part-time - between 15 to 23 hours per week.
