Cambridge Cancer Research Fund or CCRF, is based near Cambridge and over the last 22 years has funded vital cancer research at the University of Cambridge and at Addenbrooke's Hospital. At present CCRF is working to develop new tests to improve the detection of early cancer growths so that they can be successfully removed before they spread. We fund important work at Addenbrookes Hospital to find new biomarkers that can detect aggressive cancers at an early stage. In order to carry on this work we desperately need funds to allow us to continue this work and also to enable us to set up a new research group to evaluate and validate new sensitive diagnostic technologies to detect these aggressive cancers. Your donation, be it large or small, can help us carry on this vital research and help save more lives.

Our main role is to choose and commission (which means pay for and assess!) services for young people. We work for the benefit of the community so it is our members who decide what they want for themselves and other young people in Lambeth. They do this by telling us in consultations (in person, by email or through surveys) and by voting. We’re really proud to say that YLC was the first organisation of its kind in London to enable the community to make decisions about their services in this way. Members are the most important part of our organisation because they tell us what they need and how they want money to be spent.

(UK, 1117435) Browse eventsThe end of communism has left Romania 8 times poorer than 10 years ago with 44% of Romanians living in poverty. Many families live in one or two room flats in high rise blocks, usually with their parents, siblings, husband and their own children all crammed into a tiny space. Work is hard to find. Facing extreme poverty, many parents resort to home-made alcohol. Their children face the resulting brutality and either run away to beg on the street, or are sent by their parents to beg for money for more alcohol.The children form groups to beg in underground stations and shopping areas, often sleeping underground next to the hot water pipes to keep warm. Every 5th Romanian Child is Exploited: some 900,000 of the approximately 5 million children of Romania are forced into extremely hard manual labour. HEAL Romania is an organisation that attempts to offer aid to children that live in poverty in the capital city of Bucharest in Romania. This aid may come in the form of food, medical supplies, jobs assisting street children and families in finding alternative places to live. Money is raised in England is then sent every month to a sister organisation called ‘Impreuna la scoala’, which is also run by the trustees of HEAL Romania along with a Romanian social worker called Ana Doina. Ana is a trained social worker with over 20 years experience and her understanding of the children living on the streets in Romania make her invaluable. Ana Doina has excellent working relationships with other established organisations in Bucharest that allow us to use their facilities temporarily. At present HEAL Romania is fundraising for a building of its own. Our plan is to open a day centre for street children and poor families to attend with our offices based here allowing those in need to drop in. Leading eventually to gain the funds to also open a night shelter. The mayor of the area in which we work has offered to help. But we not only need to raise enough for the building but also the monthly running costs to sustain such a project.
