Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Pancreatic cancer has the lowest survival rate of all cancers – just 3% of those diagnosed survive for five years. It is also the only cancer that has seen no improvement in this figure over the last 40 years.

Pancreatic Cancer Research Fund has three main objectives:

1. To raise funds for research into early detection, new treatments and ultimately a cure for pancreatic cancer
2. To encourage more of the research community to get involved in pancreatic cancer research
3. To promote the need for more research funding by the major cancer research funding organisations

For many cancers, five year survival rates have increased hugely since the 1970s. For breast cancer – where large amounts have been spent on research – five year survival rates have increased from 50% to 80%.

Please sponsor me in my race and help raise funds for this much needed research :-)
