How we can help

• You can also request a fundraising pack stuffed full of ideas to help boost your fundraising target.


• We can also help you get ready for the triathlon with our training advice and help your family and friends support you on the day by requesting a cheering pack, full of goodies to help make a real racket.

How you will help us

By supporting Cancer Research UK you will be helping us find new ways to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer. Cancer Research UK is at the heart of cancer research, funding the work of more than 4,500 researchers, doctors and nurses throughout the UK.

• Prevention - we are at the forefront of raising national awareness on the issue of cancer. Campaigns such as the Smokefree Workplaces campaign has helped to save an estimated 600 lives a year. By promoting a healthy and active lifestyle, we can help significantly reduce cancer rates in the UK.


• Diagnosis - your money helps us to fund our three national screening programmes for bowel, breast and cervical cancers. Screening for cancer aims to find cancers as early as possible - when the chance of cure is highest. Sometimes screening programmes can find changes that would lead to cancer if they were not treated.


• Treatment - Cancer Research UK is at the heart of pioneering new clinical trials, aiming to find safe treatments with fewer side effects, to help patients feel better quicker. Our website CancerHelp UK also allows us to provide helpful information to cancer patients and their families, allowing them access to all the information and support they need.

We can't wait to welcome you on to the team. Together we will beat cancer.
