World Cancer Day 2023. Where will you start cancer cures?

1st February 2023

This World Cancer Day, start funding ground-breaking research to find new cancer cures, and join hundreds of people from across the UK who’ve just become Curestarters.

30 potential new cures

Thanks to the phenomenal support of our Curestarters, we've said “Yes!” to 30 new pioneering ideas from outstanding cancer researchers. That’s an incredible total of £6.2 million of new research that we are funding together, that could lead to more lifesaving ways to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer.

With cancer set to be the biggest killer worldwide by 2030, we can't stop and we can't slow down. 

While the incredible amount of research that we will be funding this year represents great progress, we want to do even more. 

Each year, we receive around 100 brilliant applications from world-class researchers around the world that have the potential to lead to new cures for cancer. But right now, we simply can't fund them all. But with your help, we could close that gap. 

New cures for cancer can be started anywhere – whether you're at the bus stop, in the queue at the shops, or relaxing at home on the sofa. It really is that simple. 

Become a Curestarter today - donate and help us end the suffering caused by cancer.
