Formby festival is a charity event run completely by volunteers including the committee, stewards, tech crew and more. This year our charity partner is cancer research UK

Cancer research is a charity that is close to our hearts as we have all felt the effects that cancer can have, especially our founder. Over her lifetime she has had cancer 3 times, most recently last summer she was diagnosed with breast cancer and still put her all into creating the festival last year. Cancer research UK is very important as not only does it provide treatment options but through their research more people are receiving earlier diagnosis which saves lives. While cancer has physical effects it can also effect people’s mental health so please don’t be afraid to talk about how you feel and here at Formby festival we understand what you are going through, whether it is you who has been diagnosed or know someone who has.

All our profits at the festival are donated to charity, this year that is Cancer Research UK.
