Perks of going sober

Helping people living with cancer.

Life with cancer has never been so tough, and the funds you raise through your Sober October challenge will make a big difference to people living with cancer.

A healthier you.

Giving up alcohol comes with loads of feel good benefits.

More time on your hands.

You'll have time to fit in a morning gym class or weekend run, check out the breakfast menu at a new restaurant or learn something new.

A happier bank balance.

By giving those alcoholic drinks a miss, just think how much you’ll save!

Making a difference.

Raising money so Macmillan can help people living with cancer feels great!

So, there you have it... prepare to reset and get back on track with a clear mind, whilst raising money for people living with cancer.

Important Note

Sober October is an 18+ fundraising campaign aimed at challenging social drinkers to change their habits for a month and make some healthy lifestyle changes. We would encourage people to drink responsibly and stick to the recommended daily guidelines for the rest of the year. We advise heavy drinkers or people dependent on alcohol to speak with their GP before signing up to Sober October.
