The latest campaign for Macmillan Cancer Support portrays Macmillan staff as compassionate warriors who do whatever it takes to support those who face the daily challenges and triumphs of living with cancer. Their grit, skill, ingenuity, humour and tenderness shine through in the work.

The campaign will run on TV, digital, social and radio and is spearheaded by a film entitled “Tender yet Tough’ that breaks in Saturday night’s episode of The Voice.

The new direction shines a fresh light on Macmillan’s role as a crucial player in the battle to secure and deliver the best care and support for people living with cancer.

The launch film was directed by Jonathan Alric, best known for his ‘The Blaze’ music videos and was produced during the second lockdown. Music is Spring 1 by acclaimed artist Max Richter.
