WHY CANCER 52?
In Dec 2019, Charlene's Dad passed from an extremely rare form of lung cancer; with there being only 3 others in global medical history ever being diagnosed with the same mutation.
In March 2020, Jeff's Dad was unexpectedly diagnosed with an aggressive and unknown form of cancer. Both diagnosis had little to no research history and no possible treatment with limited opportunity to really fight against this truly horrific disease. It was the hardest challenge to push for further investigations and offered little hope for their future.
This is why we were compelled to support Cancer52 as their work helps to voices those that are suffering.
Cancer52 represents nearly 100 predominantly small patient support group cancer charities united by their vision of seeing a better future for everyone affected by the rare and less common cancers, which account for more than half of all cancer deaths in the UK.
Its aim is to promote improved diagnosis, treatment and support
for those affected by rare and less common cancers. Cancer52 works on matters that impact on the rare and less common cancer community – defined as all cancers outside the ‘big four’ of breast, prostate, lung and bowel.
Current data shows that 47% of cancers diagnosed are rare and
less common cancers, yet they account for 55% of cancer deaths.*
