Story

Thank you for visiting our Just Giving page.  We are taking part in the I love the 90's virtual run to mark the 30th anniversary of the Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation and raise awareness and vital funding for lung cancer research and support. Lung cancer is the most common form of cancer and 28% of lung cancers aren't caused by smoking - if you have lungs you can get lung cancer. 

Because of support from events like the virtual run, over the past 30 years the charity has been able to ...

Funded over £30 million in lung cancer research --- Lay the groundwork for lung cancer screening --- Funded the first ever lung cancer nurse specialist --- Performed the first ever lung cancer keyhole surgery --- Instigated and implemented the ban on smoking in public places and smoking in cars --- Helped thousands of people to stop smoking --- Funded and built the first lung cancer research centre in the UK --- Campaigned for life-lengthening treatments --- Raised awareness of lung cancer, challenged the misconceptions around the disease and improved attitudes --- Provided emotional, practical and financial support for thousands and thousands of people diagnosed and living with lung cancer

... But there is so much more to be done.
