It’s our birthday!

The 4th February is World Cancer Day and it's also our birthday!

Today we celebrate 20 years since Cancer Research UK was formed. This year, 2022 also marks 120 years since the founding of the Imperial Cancer Research Fund, one of the organisations that merged to form Cancer Research UK in 2002. This makes it both our 20th and 120th anniversaries. This is a proud moment.  We’ve come so far – and we’ll go much further. Read more about our top 10 achievements.

On World Cancer Day we just want to say thank you for being with us along the way!
