For our latest Discovery Club, members met virtually with some of our leading scientists, who are using cutting-edge methods to assess and treat rare cancers such as sarcoma and other cancers of unmet need. During the evening, guests learned more about how they helping to find new treatment options for these patients who desperately need them - and why philanthropic support is so vital.

Researchers at The Institute of Cancer Research, London, and The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust, working alongside collaborators from around the globe, are set to begin work on the world’s largest digital hub of sarcoma clinical and research data after receiving a £2.5m grant.
