Press centre

Cancer Research UK is the largest single funder of breast cancer research in the UK.

The charity's press office can provide journalists with the latest facts and figures on breast cancer. We can also put you in touch with cancer experts and arrange interviews with breast cancer patients or celebrity supporters.

We have images and samples of the charity's iconic rubber ducks, as well as pink products that are being sold by our corporate supporters.
