We fund scientists, doctors and nurses to help beat cancer sooner. We also provide cancer information to the public.
We want to bring about a world where everybody can lead longer, better lives, free from the fear of cancer. A world where: Some types of cancer are effectively eliminated. Many more are prevented from developing in the first place.
We rely on a brilliant team of helpers to make our events happen.
Each year over 700,000 people join the fight against cancer by taking part in an event and fundraising in aid of Cancer Research UK, they can’t cross the finish line without the passion and energy of an amazing team of volunteers, like you!
1 in 2 of us will get cancer in our lifetime. We all have a part to play in beating it.
Our Opportunities
