I am joining the Young's Team in the Race for Life this year.

Please join the fight by sponsoring me - it's quick, easy and totally secure.

Events like this are vital in funding Cancer Research UK's life-saving work into preventing, diagnosing and treating cancer. By sponsoring me, we can unite and create an army that cancer can't ignore. By sponsoring me, we will beat cancer sooner.

How your money can help Cancer Research UK

Did you know that 80p in every pound you raise goes directly towards our work to beat cancer? Here are some examples of the money you raise in sponsorship – big or small – can help us become cancer’s worst nightmare:

• £8 kits out our scientists with a lab timer, helping them to find out what makes a cancer cell tick.
• £20 buys a lab coat, box of gloves and goggles. Not only geek chic, but vital items to help our scientists carry out life-saving research.
• £70 pays for a Bunsen burner to help ignite groundbreaking research on a daily basis.
• £180 pays for one day of a trial to discover faster diagnosis and new therapies to treat brain cancer.
• £300 buys a hotplate to warm special solutions, turning up the temperature on groundbreaking research.
• £450 pays for one day of a trial to diagnose prostate cancer earlier and more efficiently.
