Christmas is a time for connection, kindness and spending time with the people who matter most. But for someone facing cancer, the festive period can also bring difficult moments, especially for those spending Christmas in hospital or away from loved ones.
At From Me to You, we believe that a handwritten letter can make a real difference. A few thoughtful words can bring a little comfort, offer a moment of connection and remind someone that they are being thought of.
This Christmas, we're hoping to send 5,000 handwritten letters to people living with cancer, both at home and in hospitals across the UK.
Could you help us spread a little Christmas kindness?
We're inviting you to write a Christmas letter or card to someone facing cancer. You could share your favourite festive traditions, a happy Christmas memory, what you're looking forward to this year, or simply send a few kind words to brighten someone's day.
You don't need to know who will receive your letter, and you don't need to write anything extraordinary. It's the thought and kindness behind your words that count.
If you'd like to get involved, simply write your letter or card and send it to:

Please make sure your Christmas letters and cards reach us by 10 December so that we have time to prepare them for the festive period.
Help us reach 5,000 letters
Last Christmas, with the support of our wonderful letter writers, we sent 5,000 letters to people facing cancer. We'd love to do the same again this year.
Every letter we receive helps us bring a little warmth and connection to someone who may be having a difficult time. Thank you to everyone who takes the time to put pen to paper and help us make Christmas a little brighter.
