The Big Give Christmas Challenge
From Tuesday 3rd December to Tuesday 10th December, your donation will go twice as far! Thanks to our generous pledgers, every pound you give will be matched, with up to £20,000 in match funding available.
For example, a donation of £55 to Cobalt through the Big Give, when combined with Gift Aid and match funding, transforms into an impressive £123.75 — amplifying your impact on breast cancer research.
This year, every penny raised through the campaign will directly fund vital breast cancer research nurses and specialist clinical trials in Cheltenham.
Meet our research nurses
We interviewed Minna and Rekha, two research nurses at Thirlestaine Breast Centre to learn more about their roles, which research trials have they recently worked on and the positive impact these trials are having on patient’s lives.
Our target
So far we have raised £40,000 which is 100% of our target! Thank you so much.
Thank you

Donate via bank transfer (gifts over £500)
You can add funds to a Big Give donor account via bank transfer, which can then be used to make your donation to Cobalt during the Big Give. Funds are securely held by the Big Give, and donations are processed by Stripe. Please remember to donate between 3 December – 10 December.
