The Cancer Fund was set up to support cancer services at University College London Hospitals. UCLH encompasses some of the most vital cancer treatment centres in the UK, providing comprehensive world-class services to diagnose, treat and support people with cancer. Most patients come from North London, Hertfordshire and Essex, but as a specialist treatment centre for many types of cancer, the hospitals treat patients from across the entire country.
We aim to provide support where it is most needed across these services, from funding staff training to purchasing equipment, in areas that the NHS would otherwise be unable to.
