A Trek to Remember 2022 · 24 September 2022 ·
Every day 58 women in the UK are diagnosed with a gynaecological cancer and 21 die. Those numbers are shocking and so Jo and I are trekking Hadrian's Wall with the Eve Appeal, in memory of all who have lost their lives to gynae cancers including my auntie Julie.
For those who haven't heard of the Eve Appeal, they are the leading UK national charity funding research and raising awareness into the five gynaecological cancers – womb, ovarian, cervical, vulval and vaginal.
The Eve Appeal was set up to prevent gynaecological cancers and save lives by funding ground-breaking research focused on developing effective methods of risk prediction, earlier detection and developing screening for all of the five gynae cancers. They have played a crucial role in providing seed funding, core infrastructure funding and project funding in addition to campaigning to raise awareness.
The world-leading research that the Eve Appeal funds is ambitious and challenging but their vision is simple: A future where gynaecological cancers are a disease of the past.
