Meet our supporters

We know more about the causes of cancer than ever before, and that’s down to the hard work and expertise of world-leading scientists, such as ours. Your support means they can continue their ground-breaking research to one day defeat cancer.

We couldn’t make the discoveries to help defeat cancer without the generosity of our supporters. Supporters like Professor Robin Weiss who decided to leave us a legacy in his Will. Or Stella Faughnan who raised over £6,000 by running the London Marathon. And Christopher's Smile, a family charity partner, which has supported four full-time research positions at the ICR.

No matter how you choose to support us, we are united in our commitment to our cancer research.

With your help, we can continue to make the discoveries that defeat cancer.

If you'd be willing to share your reasons for supporting us, we'd love to hear from you - please email your story to [email protected].
