Lingen Davies Cancer Fund
Lingen Davies Cancer Fund is the main cancer charity dedicated to supporting the people of Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin, and Mid-Wales as they deal with the impact of cancer on their lives.

We exist to improve the lives of everyone impacted by cancer in our community, as well as helping others understand and recognise the signs and symptoms of cancer, and to seek appropriate support sooner rather than later.

Fundraising is at the heart of what we do. We have ambitious plans for the coming years and every penny and pound we can raise will be spent on helping to raise awareness of cancer – to prevent it, encourage people to get the help they need, and enhance services and support for those living with cancer and beyond.

Stay
Stay has been a specialist charitable housing provider and a provider of person-centred support for homeless and vulnerable people in the Telford & Wrekin Borough, for over 30 years. Stay began life in November 1997, when Telford Christian Council Supported Housing (now operating as Stay) was established. The charity was set up after a number of young people turned up at local churches asking for help as they had nowhere else to go. The name Stay however was known in Telford for some years before that time through the original Stay Project at Wesley House in Oakengates, which was opened in 1990.
