fUndraisinG Supporting valuable research Hello! My name is Victoria and I am the local representative from Cancer Research UK, my role is to help anyone in the local area who would like to volunteer or fundraise for us. Cancer Research UK is the world’s leading cancer charity dedicated to saving lives through research. Our groundbreaking work into the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of cancer has seen survival rates double in the last 40 years. Our scientists and doctors have contributed to most of the world’s top cancer drugs and we have pioneered the use of radiotherapy to treat cancer. We don’t just do research. Every year we help millions of people get the information they need to understand the disease. And, together with our supporters, we campaign on key cancer issues including access to cancer drugs, screening and reducing the use of tobacco. More than one in three of us will get cancer at some point in our lives. Our research to beat cancer is entirely funded by the public. And thanks to their generosity our scientists, doctors The Cancer research UK Centre at Cambridge and nurses are leading the world in discovering new ways to fight cancer. Research saves lives and our work is critical to ensuring more people beat this devastating disease. Last year 2011/12 we raised £432 million, £332 million of which was spent on research, the rest goes on future fundraising. For every £1 you donate we guarantee that 80p will be spent directly on research. You might be surprised to hear that 90% of our donations are for £10 or less and there are lots of things you can do to help raise funds. Get involved & sponsored Get sponsored to give up one of your guilty pleasures like chocolate, shopping or swearing. Sponsored silence - Keep your lips sealed for a day and ask for donations. Shave it off - Get sponsored to shave off your hair or your eyebrows. Have a good clear out - Start auctioning off all those unused items sitting around your house that you don’t need any more. Do a good deed - From sweeping up those autumn leaves to cleaning and car washing – there are lots of chores your neighbours could use some help with. victoria Goldsmith Empty your pockets - Donate your loose change every night for a month. Thanks to our supporters, we spent more than £42 million last year on leading scientific and clinical research in East Anglia. We fund groundbreaking research throughout the region, from clinical trials running at nearby hospitals, to our Cancer Research UK Centre in Cambridge. Our Centres bring together experts in the local medical and scientific community to translate research into benefits for patients as quickly as possible. Every day, 80 people are diagnosed with cancer in East Anglia which adds up to 29,300 people a year being diagnosed in the local area alone and cancer death rates in East Anglia have fallen by almost a quarter over the last twenty years. We have made great progress but there is still so much more to be done. if you would like to find out more about volunteering or fundraising for Cancer research UK please contact me at victoria.goldsmith@cancer.org.uk or telephone: 07909 967718. 22 Please mention Community Life when responding to adverts
