Our Macmillan partnership
We've been working with Macmillan Cancer Support since 2004, during which time our employees have helped to raise vital funds to improve the lives of those affected by cancer. Our partnership is now valued at over £2.4 million.
As our relationship with Macmillan matures, we're constantly developing new ways of working together. For example, last year we trialled our Fuel Management Programme, designed to help people affected by cancer manage their fuel bills.
In 2008 our employees took part in a huge range of fundraising events, including the London Marathon and the Great North Run. In September, they raised £54,000 for Macmillan in just one day at The World's Biggest Coffee Morning. The company then matched all employees' fundraising efforts pound for pound.
"The long lasting partnership between npower and Macmillan Cancer Support has achieved outstanding things for people living with cancer. The partnership continues to achieve this through the fuel management programme and of course through staff fundraising. This is a unique partnership which has helped forge the way for how we work with other corporate partners." Ciaran Devane, Chief Executive, Macmillan Cancer Support
