Relationship Management; Supporter Marketing; High Value Relationships; Community
and Events; Trading; and Strategic Development.

The charity is also creating a new directorate, led by Sarah Lyness, combining its
communications and information activities. The Communications and Information directorate
will consist of six departments: PR & Press and Brand; Internet and New Media; Cancer
Information; Health Information; Patient Information; and Strategy and Operations.
