Today is International Nurses Day 2026 and we're shedding light on the amazing work that Macmillan Cancer Support nurses do 💚💚💚

£39 could pay for a Macmillan Nurse for an hour, helping people living with cancer and their families receive essential medical, practical, and emotional support. Thank you to all our customers and team members who donate and fundraise for Macmillan through our centres - it all makes a massive difference to people's lives.

Macmillan Clinical Nurse Specialists (CNSs), and other nurses with similar roles, treat and manage patients’ health concerns and work to promote health and wellbeing. They use their skills and expertise in cancer care to provide physical and emotional support, coordinate care services and to inform and advise patients on clinical as well as practical issues. CNSs can specialise in caring for a specific population (such as young people), a type of care (such as palliative care), a condition (such as lymphoedema), or a particular cancer (such as lung cancer).

You can learn more about our partnership with Macmillan here:

Hollywood Bowl Group is proud to be partnered with one of the UK's leading charities, Macmillan.
