Hi all,
I am running the Great North Run 2020, in order to help find a less invasive cure to this disease.
A good friend has recently been diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer and it would be incredible to think that we could contribute to help fund research and future treatments for this.
One woman dies in the UK from ovarian cancer every two hours. Although five-year survival rates for ovarian cancer are improving, other cancers, such as breast cancer, had better survival rates two generations ago than ovarian cancer does today. Were here to change all that. Over the last fifteen years, our efforts to fund and facilitate the very best ovarian cancer research have achieved dramatic results. But, of course, theres more work to be done. Thanks to the continuing generosity of our supporters, were now committed to funding the next generation of research and to accelerating progress in three main areas: preventing the disease, diagnosing it early, and developing effective, personalised treatments. We believe this approach will help more women survive ovarian cancer than ever before. Take action with us now and transform the lives and prospects of women today and for generations to come.
