How pledging a gift in your Will supports research
£4,000
Could buy a diamond knife to slice through cells, allowing us to study them closely to find new ways to target cancer's weak spots.
£7,000
Could fund one week of our Add Aspirin clinical trial into stopping cancer coming back after treatment
15% of a £400,000 estate
Could buy a DNA-sequencing machine that allows our scientists to analyse a huge amount of DNA very quickly, helping them to learn more about cancer
I will continue to fight cancer until I pass away, so why not continue to fight cancer when I am gone - Jo, Pledger
I really appreciated the simplicity of using the service, so I would recommend it to anyone. You can do the whole Will, not just the charity donation so it’s a win-win. Cancer Research UK were very supportive and answered any questions I had, and my Free Will Service solicitor was excellent and very approachable too.
You pledge, we discover
Gifts in Wills fund a third of our work
Gifts in Wills play a vital role in funding our work. From early steps towards breast cancer prevention in 1911 to proving the power of the HPV vaccine in 2021, our research would not be possible without the support of legacy giving. By pledging a gift in your Will you are helping to create a future that protects the people you love.
Making future discoveries possible
We fund over 4000 scientists, doctors and nurses across the UK. Long term investment is essential to research, without it our scientists wouldn't have been able to make the breakthroughs we've already made. But we aren't done yet. By pledging a gift in your Will you can help us continue to invest in cutting-edge science, driving progress that can change the future.
