The Children with Cancer UK Fundraising Charity Gala

Our fabulous Gala is back on Wednesday 27 November 2024 and promises to be the most unforgettable one yet. This year the Gala will take place at one of the most prestigious locations in London, the Peninsula Hotel. Newly built and impeccably designed to harmonise with the surrounding heritage buildings, the venue is located on Hyde Park Corner and just steps away from Kensington Gardens.

The legendary Gala evening will include entertainment, superb culinary offerings, unrivalled service, prizes and plenty of magical moments in one extraordinary night of raising funds for our vital mission: to see a world where every child survives cancer.

The evening will start at 6.30pm with a sparkling drinks reception, followed by a three course dinner with wine and a live auction featuring many luxury prizes and money can’t buy experiences. We will also be announcing our fantastic entertainment for the night very soon.

Our history

When the O’Gorman family tragically lost two of their children to cancer, it launched a mission that we continue with to this day: to see a world where every child and young person survives cancer. As one of Britain’s leading charities devoted to research into the causes of and treatments for childhood cancers, our work has invested millions that has greatly improved the outcomes of the 4,200 children and young people a year who will face a cancer diagnosis.

Join us and help us to honour this legacy and keep doing this vital work.

The 2022 Gala

On 12 November 2022, we held the annual Children with Cancer UK Ball. Hosted by Gaby Roslin and headlined by Lulu, Bananarama and Tony Hadley. We were also joined Dynamo the magician and DJ Brandon Block. A massive thanks to our sponsors Market Financial Solutions and all the guests that joined us for an amazing night of fundraising. The Ball raised over £700,000.
