Dr Matt Fittall, Clinical Oncologist

Janet Forgenie, Uro-oncology CNS Lead

Supported by friends Zillah Byng-Thorn and Chris Taylor

"We are planning to cycle circa 350 miles in just 3.5 days to raise much-needed funds

to support treatment and research into prostate, bladder and penile cancer at UCLH.

Both Matt and Janet have worked with prostate cancer patients for many years and

appreciate the difficulties this group of patients must go through every day. The benefit

of exercise when having treatment for prostate cancer is well recognised. By embarking on

this cycle, they hope to raise awareness and some much-needed funds to support

research into new treatments."

To support their quest, please visit justgiving.com/page/janet-forgenie-1, or enter

their raffle to win a hamper and Arsenal Football memorabilia. Tickets on sale at the

UCLH Charity hub in the Cancer Centre, or email uclh.enquiry.cancerfund@nhs.ne

Over 14,000 people every year are treated for cancer at University College Hospital, and this number is rising annually. Our patients come from across the UK though mostly from north London, Hertfordshire and Essex.

University College Hospital aims to ensure that all people with cancer, and their families and carers receive a world-class service from diagnosis through treatment and beyond. To achieve this aim and to support our patients, we have created the University College Hospital Cancer Fund which assists with important areas of work above and beyond what the NHS is able to provide.
