Trusts and foundations

Today, 60 women and people with gynae organs in the UK will hear the devastating news they have a gynaecological cancer, and 21 will sadly die because of the gynae cancer they were diagnosed with. This must change.

We need to fund far more research into the prevention and early diagnosis of all five gynae cancers. 

We need to educate far more people about their gynae health and the signs and symptoms of gynae cancers. 

And we need to make sure that anyone who has a question or concern about their gynae health knows where to go for our help and can easily access it. 

Trusts and Foundations play a vital role in making this happen. We are actively seeking further funds to keep our Ask Eve nurse information service running and to fund new research programmes that could be truly transformative. 

Some of the areas we are actively seeking funds for are:

• Research Fellowships – We have a strong track record of supporting pioneering researchers who have gone on to make significant advances in the field, and this fund invests in the future leaders of gynaecological cancer research 
• Rare Gynae Fund – This fund is dedicated to investing in chronically under-funded research into rare gynaecological cancers, to ensure we can improve the lives of everyone with a gynaecological cancer diagnosis
• Small Awards Fund – This fund offers targeted funding to support both early-career researchers and established experts in developing innovative ideas that could lead to significant advances in the field 
• Ask Eve – Ask Eve is our Nurse-led information service for anyone with questions or concerns related to their gynaecological health, ensuring they receive accurate, confidential and trusted information 

If you share our passion for preventing gynae cancers and saving the 21 lives lost every day, please get in touch.
