The Grace Kelly Ladybird Trust for research into rare solid tumours of childhood, including malignant rhabdoid tumours is working to provide grants and funding for research into these tumours.

It is also the biggest medical cause of death of children in the UK. Despite this fact, research is massively underfunded. We are fighting to change this.
