We fund research and raise awareness to transform treatments and survival rates

Story

The stats suck!  The survival for Ovarian cancer is about 13% and hasn't gotten any better in the last 30 years.  The symptoms are unspecific to Ovarian cancer, which makes it virtually undetectable until it's usually too late.

I know all too well how this relentless disease affects a family: my mother lives with Recurrent Ovarian cancer, diagnosed last summer, after 6 years of being cancer-free.

Together we can change the stats!

Please sponsor me to run a half-marathon in honour of all the suvivors and in memory of those who were less fortunate.

Ovarian cancer is the biggest gynaecological killer in the UK claiming the life of a woman every 2 hours. Many women still do not know the symptoms leading to late diagnosis. We are determined to drive up survival rates by funding world-class research into causes, treatments and prevention.
