Christie's appeal - Annual report
Christie's appeal - Annual Report
The Christie is the largest single-site cancer treatment centre in Europe. We provide high
quality diagnosis, treatment and care for more than 3.2 million people across Greater Manchester and
Cheshire; world class research from the laboratory to the clinic; and education of international renown in
all aspects of cancer.
But we want to do better. Our vision is a future without cancer and our aim is to provide ever more
effective treatments for our patients so their chances of surviving cancer are greatly increased.
Although The Christie receives the majority of its income through the NHS, charitable funds are
of vital importance in enabling us to maintain our world-leading reputation and standards.
The purpose of the hospital's charity is to support the development of cancer prevention, treatment,
research and education through investment in staff, equipment, facilities and other support services.
