I am a breast cancer Survivor and the most significant part of my survival has to be down to the treatment and support I received in 2015 and 2016 during my primary diagnosis and recovery. Much of that would not have been possible without Cancer Research UK. I am proud of my ability to fight and survive this dreadful disease but Cancer Research is continuing to research and fund new initiatives to fight cancer and so much has been achieved since my diagnosis. The work is still ongoing, as detailed below, but we still need more funding to continue with this course of action. Your donations are of paramount importance so please give generously.

Relay For Life celebrates the power of community fundraising to make breakthroughs happen. Across the UK and the globe, teams of friends, families and colleagues fundraise for world-leading research to save and improve lives, then unite at an event to honour everyone affected by cancer and celebrate the progress we’re making to beat it. Here's how the money you raise powers progress:£60 could buy a microscope lens, allowing our scientists to focus on the small details that could help us beat cancer.£2000 could fund the CanRisk project for one day, which is developing a way to accurately predict people's risk of developing cancer so we can spot the disease earlier.When you fundraise for Relay For Life, you’re helping to bring about a world where everybody lives longer, better lives, free from the fear of cancer. Thank you for your support.Together we are beating cancer.
