We just don\u2019t want it around and so it\u2019s time to raise funds to help send cancer packing. Every year, cancer treatments get better and more lives are being saved. But there\u2019s still a long way to go before cancer is banished forever. This all takes money, but it\u2019s certainly money well spent, so why not get funding raising and do your bit to help kick cancer\u2019s butt? Every single penny donated goes towards groundbreaking scientific research in the fight against cancer.<\/p>\n<p>To date, the campaign has raised over 38 million pounds. This has funded 35 groundbreaking trials that have benefited more than 8000 cancer patients.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How you can help <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Want to get involved? Great!
