What charities do you support?
Sometimes we are asked what we do with the money we collect. Contrary to what is occasionally said, we do not drink it! Over the years DDMM have made donations to a number of different charities, normally local ones. These have included the Woodland Trusts, Guide Dogs for the Blind, Macmillan Nurses, the Wishbone Trust, Emmaus, Cambridge Dial-a-Ride, Headway Cambridgeshire, Jimmy's Cambridge, The Prospects Trust, Royal Papworth Charity and the Rooprai Trust.
From our AGM in 2024 we shall be supporting Prostate Cancer UK.
1 in 8 men will contract prostate cancer in this country. Prostate Cancer UK seeks to give every man the power to navigate the condition by aiding understanding, assisting in making treatment choices, and helping with access to relevant expertise.

Thus the more you give, the more we can give them!
