We are a group of school friends doing a charity walk to raise money for Cancer Research UK.
Fundraising pageWe chose this charity because our lives have been affected by more than one kind of cancer. '1 in 2 of us will get cancer in our lifetime' (Ahmad AS et al, British Journal of Cancer, 2015). We together want to make a difference in prevention, diagnosis and treatment of cancer. 'Over the past 40 years survival has doubled, thanks to the great progress research has made' (Cancer Research Website). Please have a look at the Cancer Research website for more information - https://www.cancerresearchuk.org/our-research
