Cancer Research UK
The Cambridge Half Marathon’s Official Charity for 2016

Take on the Cambridge Half Marathon and bring forward the day that all cancers are cured.

Be on the team that will get you to the finish line. Wear our running vest, digest our expert fundraising advice, take a look at our training tips and feel the support of our cheering teams. We will also have a post-race party waiting for you at the end of the race to say thank you in person!

Why Choose Us?

There are over 200 different types of cancer and we are the only charity tackling all of them. Every step we make towards beating cancer relies on every pound, every hour, every runner.

More than one in three of us will develop cancer at some point in our lives. Thanks to research, one day cancer will be a different disease. One day all cancers will be cured.

For over 100 years our doctors, scientist and nurses have been working tirelessly to help bring forward the day when all cancers are cured. Each day more than 400 people can now expect to reach their 10-year milestone of surviving cancer.

Why We Need You...

Thanks to our amazing supporters survival rates across all forms of cancer have doubled in the last 40 years, but we can't stop there. Our ambition is to accelerate progress and see three quarters of patients surviving cancer within the next 20 years.

When we stand united, cancer doesn’t stand a chance. With relentless determination we can push forward more quickly towards a future where cancer doesn’t have to be feared.

With you on board we can accelerate our progress and beat cancer sooner.

We’d love to have you on the team, join the fight today.
