Research Progress News

The purpose of our fund raising work is to provide much needed funds to seed fund life changing research. We provide those initial funds to get a new initiative off the ground in order for some form of proof of concept to provide the much needed evidence for a fully funded programme. Over the years we have provided funding to support some data collection projects on certain types of disease and outcomes like a Robotics Register, which has now gone international. We have provided funding to help look into early detection like a blood test to detect polyps in the colon, and we supported a major review into the use of a kidney protein called Klotho which has both curative and early detection properties. This in turn helped the research fellow get a step up in  their career with a post in the Royal Marsden.  So your money is providing assistance in many ways, but plenty more is needed to be done.

In the last few weeks our late diagnosed patient list has added 4 more young men in their early fifties to those battling against a very life threatening condition. We are doing our bit with moral support and some guidance to help deal with the emotional challenges that cone with it.

Do get in touch if you would like to help us a volunteer or provide support in any other way, we really appreciate anything that comes our way.
