Helping more people survive cancer is the aim of everything we do. Read stories from people who have been affected by leukaemia, and how research has made a difference to them.
Katie from Glasgow was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia shortly after her third birthday, and took part in a Cancer Research UK clinical trial. Her Mum, Siobhan, says: “We believed that with the clinical trial Katie had the best chance of recovery. We would do it again to help other families and other children like Katie in the future. Without these trials, amazing new treatments may never be found.”
