And over 80,000 people pledged support for our campaign to remove branding from tobacco packs to make smokingless attractive to young people. Our vision is to bring forward the day when all cancers are cured – from the most common typesto those that affect just a few people. Together we’re leading the world in discovering and developing new ways to prevent andtreat cancer. As a result, we’ve helped double survival rates in just 40 years. We can’t stop here. There’s so much more to do.The risk of being diagnosed with cancer is rising. We receive no Government funding for our research. But with your support,our scientists, doctors and nurses continue to make sure more people survive. We couldn’t do it without you. By workingtogether we will beat more cancers sooner.
