About
Weston Park Cancer Charity is here to face cancer with you. Our services, advice, therapies and support are for you and the people close to you, helping everyone to live with and beyond cancer.
The funds we raise support vital, pioneering research and clinical trials led by the exceptional medical experts at Weston Park Cancer Centre.
It’s our job to care in every sense for our patients and their families. Our help is free, and we’re here for you, together at every step.
Cancer survival rates have more than doubled since Weston Park Hospital opened in 1970, with some incredible advances. Only around 44 per cent of women with breast cancer survived in the 1970s. Now, more than 77 per cent live for at least 10 years after diagnosis.
That’s thanks, in large part, to research – a huge part of what we fund.
Much of our funding goes towards four key areas:
-
Preventing cancer spread
-
Bringing new cancer treatments to the clinic
-
Integrating modern imaging into patient care
-
Improving quality of life and the cancer experience during and beyond treatment
