Where your money goes

Giving just £5 could kit out one of our ground-breaking research labs with the essential chemicals our scientists need - the bread and butter of day-to-day experiments.

Giving £15 could help to tackle early diagnosis and prevention. You could cover the cost of a visitor seeking health information on one of our mobile awareness units. This way you are helping them to reduce their risk of cancer and go to the doctor early with any concerns.

£30 can help improve treatments for patients with lung cancer by covering the cost of a trial for a day. Finding out if radiotherapy will pack more of a punch to cancer cells means we can stop the disease coming back after surgery.

No other charitable organisation has funded more cancer clinical trials in the UK than us.

11 people giving £50 each could buy a research tool at the forefront of revolutionary science and life-saving discoveries. £550 buys one next generation DNA sequencing experiment, helping to reveal secrets about cancer.

4 people giving £100, could help thousands of people through a very difficult time by giving them someone to talk to. £400 covers the cost of running Cancer Chat for one day.
