Cancer Research UK

Cancer Research UK is a charity funding cancer research and publishing public information about cancer. Its website includes material about cancer types, research, prevention, fundraising and its shops.

Published information and service routes cover cancer information, research and fundraising and charity shops. Use the relevant information page or service route and check its date and scope. Research news and general health information should be distinguished from advice about an individual's diagnosis or treatment.

For related tasks, Cancer Research UK can be considered alongside Age UK for later-life information, advice and support and Carers UK for carers' information, advice and support. These resources cover adjoining parts of the subject; each publishes its own information and handles its own service, access arrangements or applications.
