We pioneer life-saving cancer research to help us beat cancer

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit the Women of Influence campaign's JustGiving page.

The campaign is raising money to support some of Cancer Research UK's most talented female scientists as they carry out life-saving work. Their work will help us understand cancer better and create faster, kinder, more effective treatments. In short, their work will save lives. 

Your generosity will ensure that these incredible women can continue their world-class research. Please donate today.

The Women of Influence campaign champions women in science - giving them the financial and personal support they need to excel and rise to the top of their fields. Currently too many women drop out of scientific jobs, meaning that we lose some of the brightest minds in the race to beat cancer. To give us the best chance of beating cancer sooner, we want to make sure the most talented scientists - men or women - can continue their life-saving work. Your support for the Women of Influence campaign will help us achieve that.

All donations to the Women of Influence campaign will be used to fund the female scientists who hold one of Cancer Research UK's Fellowship Awards. These are awarded to outstanding young researchers carrying out vital work in the understanding and treatment of cancer. The award enables scientists and clinicians to set up their own pioneering research teams and gives them the support they need to establish strong, independent careers conducting research which will help us find cures for 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.
