Bone Cancer Research Trust (BCRT)
Charity number: 1159590
Website: www.bcrt.org.uk
Description:
Back in 2004 there was practically no funding for research and little awareness, information or support specifically for primary bone cancer. A group of bereaved parents of young bone cancer patients came together and formed BCRT in 2006.
To continue our life-saving research into the causes of primary bone cancer, to achieve faster diagnosis and to identify new treatments for all those with primary bone cancer, we need to raise £5million over the next 5 years.
We know that the challenge of making a difference to patients with bone cancer is a tough one. We know that research is expensive, and we know that finding a cure is a marathon, not a sprint. We also firmly believe that improving outcomes for those affected by primary bone cancer is a team sport ? a team which includes patients, parents, doctors, nurses, scientists, fundraisers and many others. We are proud to be part of that team.
