HELPING WOMEN FACE CANCER

In the UK, 18,000 women are diagnosed with a gynaecological cancer every year. This is 53 women diagnosed every day, and 21 of these will die.

GRACE is dedicated to research which will improve the treatment, recovery, and survival rates of women diagnosed with gynaecological cancers. We are currently involved in several projects including investigation of chemotherapy resistant ovarian cancers. The findings of these studies feed into the wider UK network, helping to influence and shape the diagnosis and treatment of these women.
