about Cancer Research UK

Cancer Research UK is the world\'s leading charity dedicated to cancer research. In 2007/08 we spent £333 million on cancer research projects, and a further £11m million on cancer information and advocacy. We fund the work of more than 4,500 scientists, doctors and nurses, all working together to beat cancer. Our research receives virtually no government funding and our supporters are crucial if we are to continue to make real progress against this disease. Regular donations from as little as £2 per month provide us with the stability of longer term funding which enables us to plan ahead.
