We have funded over 100 research projects tackling many forms of cancer. In 2012 we opened a dedicated clinical trials centre at Leicester Royal Infirmary to offer patients access to new medicines and therapies. We also fund two nurses who add to the care and support trials patients receive.

Story

The ‘If Alice Can, Anyone Can’ cycle ride for Hope Against Cancer returns for 2026!

The 2025 ride was an overwhelming success, raising over £114,000 for vital local cancer research.

When we were planning the 2025 cycle ride with Alice, she said, “This year I would love two things, to hopefully raise £100,000! And to have over 75 riders which would be around 15 more than last year, can we do it?!”

That target was smashed as Alice, her family, friends and supporters took on this fantastic challenge.

Sadly, Alice passed away on the 2nd February 2026, surrounded by love and true to her wishes this ride will continue.

Please support Alice's memory, Hope Against Cancer and the incredible riders planning to take to the saddle and ride 125 miles from Leicestershire to Norfolk on 29th August.

All the funding goes towards the world-class cancer research and care we have right here in the East Midlands.
