Over 21,000 women are diagnosed annually with a gynaecological cancer and sadly 21 women will die from a gynaecological cancer every day.
So 58 women and their families will receive life changing news each and every day.
GO Girls believe there is much work to do. We've all heard of breast, cancer and bowel cancer, but could you name the 5 gynaecological cancers? Yes, there are 5: ovarian, endometrial (womb), cervical, vaginal and vulva cancer. Survival is still sadly very low in ovarian cancer with overall survival rates not improving much in the last 20 years.
We need your help to help raise awareness of gynaecological cancers cancer survival improves with earlier diagnosis.
With your help, sparing your 5p's, we can make this happen.
We are hoping to raise 1,000,000 5p's - this is £50,000. With this money we can support 5 awareness campaigns to support raising awareness of all 5 gynaecological cancers.
Simply find yourself an old bottle to recycle, gather up all those 5 pence pieces, drop them into the bottle and start collecting. And when you've filled up one bottle, just start another.
