Hi,
Alison and Susan are braving burnt toes fire walking over hot coals on 22nd October to raise money for the Beatson Pebble Appeal. Any donations much appreciated no matter the amount!
The Beatson Pebble Appeal is a £10m campaign to raise funds to build the Beatson Translational Research Centre; the final element in the creation of the Glasgow Centre for Cancer Research.
The Beatson Translational Research Centre (TRC) will convert basic cancer research into real improvements in treatments for patients. It will focus upon especially common tumours, those that cause the most deaths in Scotland such as endocrine (breast, prostate and ovarian); smoking related (lung, throat, oral) and gastrointestinal cancer. Since the campaign was launched in the summer of 2007, £6m has been pledged.
