Canvas for the Mac was created by two passionate supporters of the charity who have experienced the Macmillan Unit and wanted to give something back.

They said “We are a small team who have created this charity canvas auction with the aim of raising funds for Macmillan Caring Locally, Brick-by-Brick Appeal.

Canvas for the Mac includes pieces donated by many wonderful local Dorset and national artists such as Jonathan Truss and Neil Pengelly, and celebrity signed canvases brought to life by professional artists Danny Byrne and Ross Baines just for starters! We’ve had original canvases from Ant & Dec, Brian May, Harry Redknapp, The Vamps, Martin Clunes, Marcus Rashford, Eddie Howe, Michael McIntyre, Russell Kane….and more!

We hope to raise enough money to outfit a room in the new build at Christchurch hospital in memory of our two friends who received palliative care at the unit.
