Have you got what it takes to Go Sober and do something amazing for people with cancer?

That’s 31 days with no lager, no wine... not even a shandy - all to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support’s vital work.

Whether you’re motivated by the challenge, hoping to make some healthy lifestyle changes or wanting to support friends and family affected by cancer, your hard work in resisting the booze and going sober for October will make a massive difference to people facing cancer.

Last year there were 84,567 people living with cancer in the South West, and Macmillan was able to answer 1,812 calls and fund 92 nurses across the region. You can really see the difference that your month off the booze will make to people affected by cancer in your area, and every pound of sponsorship you raise will mean that someone living with cancer in the South West of England will have a constant source of support enabling them to take back control of life and feel themselves again.

In 2013, over 31,000 Brits went sober for the 31 days of October- raising over £2.3 million for Macmillan Cancer Support. So get your mates to shout you a donation and not a pint this October, and help make sure that no one has to face cancer alone in 2014.
