Campaign Targets
Make a National Impact Together
This campaign is more than just a fundraising effort; it's a national call to action. We need the collective strength of researchers, institutions, and supporters from across the UK to tackle the funding gap in early-stage cancer research. While we have world-class researchers pushing the boundaries of science, many promising ideas struggle to reach patients because early-stage projects often lack the funding to transition from the lab to the clinic.Why National Involvement MatterS
Cancer research is a nationwide endeavour. It’s essential that we support institutions and research teams across the UK, ensuring no groundbreaking idea is held back due to a lack of resources. This campaign is about bridging that gap.
RESEARCHERS
When you submit a video, your work becomes part of our national impact showcase, highlighting the importance of early-stage funding and raising awareness of the groundbreaking research happening across the UK. Not only will your story inspire others, but by submitting, 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐭𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐛𝐞 𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐨𝐟 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐬 for the proof-of-concept prizes supported by this campaign. It's a powerful way to ensure your research and institution are at the forefront of opportunities that drive innovation from the lab to the clinic.

Together We Can Make a Difference
The campaign’s initial goal is to raise £250,000, which will fund small, proof-of-concept prizes to help unlock the next wave of breakthroughs in cancer research. But £250,000 is just the starting point. By uniting researchers, supporters, and communities from across the UK, we have the power to 𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐠𝐨𝐚𝐥 𝐛𝐲 𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐬! Every contribution, big or small, brings us closer to a future where more research is funded, more ideas are developed, and more lives are saved.Where we are today
