UHY is proud to announce that we will be supporting Blood Cancer UK as our national charity between 2026 and 2027. 

Blood Cancer UK is dedicated to beating blood cancer by funding world-class research and supporting people affected by the disease. Since 1960, the charity has invested more than £500 million in blood cancer research, helping to transform treatments and save lives.

Over the next two years, our team members will hold a multitude of fundraising events ranging from fun, to challenging, to both, in an effort to raise as much vital funding for Blood Cancer UK as possible. If you would like to support our fundraising efforts, please visit our JustGiving page.

The charities we’ve previously supported

Dementia UK
 

Dementia is one of the biggest health challenges of our time, with one individual in the UK developing it every three minutes. Dementia UK is a specialist dementia nursing charity that is there for the whole family. Their nurses, known as Admiral Nurses, provide free, life-changing support and advice to anyone affected by dementia.

In the years between 2024 and 2026, our national team supported Dementia UK with various fundraisers. Over 40 team members took on either a full or half-marathon distance trek through the stunning Peak District, raising over £16,000 from just this initiative alone. In total, we raised over £65,000, the most for any national charity to date!

Teenage Cancer Trust

Teenage Cancer Trust is the  only UK charity dedicated to providing specialised nursing care and support to young people aged 13-24 living with cancer. By funding specialised nurses, youth workers and hospital units within the NHS, the charity ensures that young cancer patients receive dedicated staff and facilities to support them throughout their treatment journey.

During 2023/24, our UK offices participated in various charity events, including 60 team members taking on the London Royal Parks Challenge. Collectively, our team raised an incredible £45,000 for Teenage Cancer Trust.

ShelterBox

We are very proud to have supported our 2022/23 national charity ShelterBox who provide shelter, essential items and technical assistance to help some of the world’s most vulnerable people recover and rebuild their homes after disaster. ShelterBox responds to natural disasters such as earthquakes, tropical cyclones, tsunamis, floods and volcanic eruptions, and also provides emergency aid to families who have been displaced by war or conflict, in places such as Ukraine.

Over the year, our offices from across the UK participated in over 20 national charity days, as well as the UHY Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge, to collectively fundraise a total of £42,000 for ShelterBox.

Children with Cancer UK

Children With Cancer UK are the leading childhood cancer charity in the UK, supporting families and childhood cancer research. Over the last 38 years, they have developed kinder treatments, improved public and scientific understanding of childhood cancer and raised over £300 million. 

FareShare (The Felix Project)

Formerly known as FareShare, the charity is now called the Felix Project. The charity supports 1.5 million people across the UK by redistributing surplus food, which would otherwise go to waste, to charities that turn it into meals.

They have 18,000 volunteers working together in the UK, supporting 8,000 charities and community groups, with five meals delivered every second to 1.5 million people across the country.

Mental Health Foundation

Mental Health Foundation is the only UK charity solely focused on preventing poor mental health and building and protecting good mental health. They tackle the rapidly-growing mental health crisis by changing the UK’s approach from managing mental ill health to preventing it. And we’re fighting for those most at risk, especially young people.

The charity's research helps them better understand the causes of poor mental health.

Dreams Come True

Dreams Come True are a national UK charity that works hard to make dreams come true for children and young people living in poverty who have serious and life-limiting conditions.

Millions of children in the UK are living in poverty whilst facing disability and life limiting conditions. The purpose of Dreams Come True is to bring happiness and life changing experiences to these children, reminding every child that their dreams are valued and their happiness matters.
