Guy's Cancer Charity

With a focus on patient-centred care, we combine state-of-the art-equipment, novel clinical trials, passionate staff and the most modern cancer research with compassion and effective psychological support so that our patients and their loved ones can feel fully supported throughout their cancer journey. We do this because we know each person and every cancer is unique - we don’t want to treat them all the same.Guy’s is the leading UK provider of care and treatment for people with cancer and we’re dedicated to helping patients navigate what can be the most challenging time of their lives. With all our services located under one roof within our bright and welcoming Cancer Centre, we’re able to offer seamless care every step of the way, from diagnosis, through treatment, and after, in an environment that doesn’t feel like a traditional hospital.We know that the landscape of cancer is changing. More people are being affected, but we’re at an exciting point in time when promising new therapies are being developed and research breakthroughs are waiting to be made. It’s crucial that we continue to fund the innovative research, treatment and exceptional care that takes place at Guy’s to ensure we keep going above and beyond what the NHS alone can provide as we help more people cope with and survive cancer.

Action Against Cancer

Action Against Cancer (AAC) funds the development of cures for cancer. The cutting edge programmes that we support aim to improve the survival prospects and quality of life for millions of cancer sufferers. AAC is different because we lack bureaucracy, making us able to support innovative new scientific research. We provide crucial seed funding to projects that could not secure support from other sources. Larger funders require existing data before providing finance for experiments, and this does not allow for brand new ideas - AAC fills this gap. Our fast-moving approach has been shown to work, with the discovery of a cancer-causing gene, and the identification of important molecules that suppress tumours and decrease the spread of certain cancer cells and much more. We believe that cutting edge research that takes risks and pushes boundaries is the only way cancer will be beaten.Funds given to Action Against Cancer are spent on scientists’ salaries and the essential equipment that they need to make life saving breakthroughs, in laboratories at Imperial College London, the University of Sussex and Anglia Ruskin University Cambridge. We are low on bureaucracy and have a very small staff team working from home, so no office to pay for. This means low overheads. Our supporters know their donations make a big impact.We are incredibly grateful to all of our wonderful fundraisers, donors and supporters. Thank you so much.
