Cancer Research UK
Cancer Research UK is the leading funder of cancer research in the UK
More than one in three of us will develop cancer in their lives. Many of us have lost someone to it. We all want cures to be found.
Cancer Research UK is the world's leading independent organisation dedicated to cancer research. With an annual scientific spend of £217 million, the registered charity funds over 3,000 world-class scientists, doctors and nurses across the UK. The organisation is making significant progress – thanks to earlier detection and improved treatments, survival rates have improved for nearly all cancers. But there is still so much more to do. To fund its vital long term research projects, Cancer Research UK needs regular support. To this end, supporters can set up a direct debit online for as little as £2 a month.
Every year of research improves our understanding of how to prevent cancer and treat it more effectively. In 2006/07 over 4,250 world-class cancer scientists, doctors and nurses were able to take forward their pioneering investigations. This is only possible because of the incredible support we receive from the public, but there is still much more to do.
Cancer affects us all in many ways. Mums, dads, sisters, aunts, uncles and friends alike. With your help new research can find better ways of diagnosing and treating cancer all the time. But this kind of progress needs continual support. It’s only with your ongoing support that Cancer Research UK’s scientists can continue their vital long-term research and turn knowledge into revolutionary new treatments for cancer patients.
Groundbreaking research into diagnosing, preventing and treating cancer can take many years. That’s why it is so vitally important we can plan ahead and ensure we can fund long-term research projects as effectively as possible. We want to use your money wisely. Giving a small amount every month by Direct Debit helps us save on administration costs and means that more of your money is spent on vital research. Because it matters to you, it matters to us. Cancer is everyone’s problem. Everyone is the solution. Together we will beat cancer. Please donate £2 a month now. Join us and help save lives.
