This years event is very close to our hearts as we lost my mother-in-law Lucy to pancreatic cancer .

We have built the scrap mobile to raise money for this event and hopefully use it for some children's charities in the future .

PLANETS helps patients with pancreatic, liver, colorectal, gastric, oesophageal and Neuroendocrine cancer.

In 2019, we raised £25,000! This year the aim is to reach £30,000, which will allow us to kick-start the implementation plan for purchasing another novel cancer treatment which has been on our shopping list for years at University Hospital Southampton, but the NHS has not been able to fund. Nanoknife, also known as Irreversible Electroporation (IRE), would enable the team to target some of the most difficult to treat cancers in several settings for PLANETS patients. It uses advanced thermal technology to destroy tumours that are really close to critical vascular structures, without damaging them, unlike other conventional types of treatment.

If we reach this £30k target it will mean we have raised a total of £100,000 across the 3 Scrap to the Future events we've done so far - so lets get started and put all of our efforts into fundraising for PLANETS Cancer Charity for 2023!
