“Cancer is so close to my heart after losing so many family and friends.

“In the past 50 years, Cancer Research UK’s work has helped double cancer survival in the UK. But we need to go further, faster.

“Please donate if you can to help bring about a world where everybody lives longer, better lives, free from the fear of cancer.”
