To qualify for Gift Aid, what you pay in income tax must at least equal the amount that Macmillan will claim.

Money Raised
Last year you raised an incredible £52.000 for Macmillan Community Cancer Nurses in Norfolk and this year we want to raise even more. The money raised from this year's walk will go towards Macmillan's Norfolk and Waveney appeal to provide vital new cancer care services across the county. With every penny you raise going to Macmillan you will be making a big difference to many people's lives.
