About Us


In 1935,the inaugural meeting of Friends of The Royal Marsden, Chelsea took place and since then, through a combination of fundraising, subscriptions, donations and legacies, has supported the work of the Royal Marsden, Chelsea.

Every week, 52 weeks of the year, over 17o volunteers give around 370 hours a week, which amounts to a staggering 30,000 hours a year.  Volunteers offer hands on support and assistance around the hospital in a variety of different areas.

Over the past four years, even during the  pandemic, the Friends has continued to support the hospital supporting and enabling the purchase of major items of surgical and medical equipment as well as items to enhance the comfort of patients and staff.  Every year, the Friends commits to donating up to £250,000 towards the purchase of medical equipment, services and amenities for the benefit of patients, their carers and staff at the hospital.

The Friends are proud of the fact that very nearly 100% of all donations go directly to the charity, the only paid staff being two part time secretaries.
