We are involved in a team of 120 runners (that's right 120!) taking part in the Two Castles 10k in June 2015 to raise funds & awareness for cancer research at the University of Warwick.

Sadly, 1 in 3 people will develop cancer during their lifetime - this vital research is looking at ways to improve detection of early stage cancers, treatment and patient care.

As a team we are aiming to raise £10,000 this year - so anything you can give towards this target will help.

You can see our team progress at https://www.justgiving.com/teams/teamwarwickuni.  

Research at Warwick focuses on:

- Improving detection - high quality screenings and less invasive tests
- Treatment - the development of new drugs to help the body attack and shut down cancerous cells
- Patient care - helping with issues like tiredness, sickness, weight and hair loss

Please help us to reach our £10,000 team goal, which will fund all of the following:
- 100 tests on samples
- 50 racks for gel electrophoresis, which helps measure DNA in cancer cells
- 12 simple chemotherapy pumps, to enable patients to receive their treatment at home
- 5 days of translational research
- 5 days of testing new medicines in clinical trials

Wish us all luck for this great cause!
