It’s unacceptable that more than half of people diagnosed with the deadliest common cancer die within three months. That’s why they need and deserve more. More research, more funding, more breakthroughs. More than hope. Together we’ll make that possible.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My mum passed away last week from pancreatic cancer and we would like to raise money in her memory. Pancreatic cancer has the lowest survival rate of all cancers – just 3% of those diagnosed survive for five years. It is also the only cancer that has seen no improvement in survival rates over the last 40 years.

For many cancers, five year survival rates have increased hugely since the 1970s due to intensive research. Yet despite its high death rate and lack of improvement in chances of survival, pancreatic cancer attracts little research funding in comparison with other cancers.

We would like to help others who are given this devastating diagnosis by donating some money to researching the causes and treatment of this aggressive cancer.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
