Funding research study places in Yorkshire

Yorkshire represents nearly 8% of the UK's population, but the region receives just 5% of medical research funding*.

As Yorkshire's cancer charity, we fund cancer research so that people in our region can be among the first to receive access to pioneering treatments and innovative ways to diagnose cancer.

Our aim is to give patients greater access to new cancer treatments, and we are the biggest funder of cancer research study places in the region.
