We research early diagnosis and treatments to beat pancreatic cancer.

Story

Pancreatic cancer is known as the silent killer.  By the time it is diagnosed it is usually too late.  

After a very short illness, Trevor's brother Colin lost his fight against pancreatic cancer on 10th Feb 2013.  He was 45 years old and was a devoted husband to Susan and father to Adam and Aaron.

40 years ago few children survived childhood leukaemia - now the survival rate is 80%
40 years ago only 46% of woman diagnosed with breast cancer survived 5 years or more - now that figure is 80%
40 years ago 3% of people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer survived 5 years or more - that figure is still 3%.....SHOCKING
