8 Years Old
We recently marked our 8th anniversary. Since our launch in 2016 we have raised more than £890,000 and, thanks to our wonderful volunteers, 95% of the money raised goes to fund research. We have already funded 3 projects researching secondary breast cancer and have just started funding a fourth project. The first of these projects looked at how some breast cancer cells move and invade other parts of the body. The second researched the relationship between cancer and the immune system. The third project investigated ways of limiting the damage to healthy tissue caused by some very powerful cancer killing drugs. This year we are funding a new project investigating the way that changes in the ER gene help breast cancer cells grow despite hormone therapy. We are so grateful to everyone who has supported us, fundraisers, donors and volunteers. None of this would be possible without them.
