How We Fund Research

Clatterbridge Cancer Charity has granted £5m over five years to advance research at The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre. The money will support early phase clinical trials, ground-breaking new treatments and boost access to the latest in cancer care for the people who need it most.

“This funding is a game changer for cancer research at Clatterbridge, giving us the ability to take our groundbreaking studies to the next level and giving patients in Cheshire and Merseyside unparalleled access to new, lifesaving treatments closer to their homes. We want the name Clatterbridge to be synonymous with clinical research and this incredible pledge can ensure this. Thank you to everybody who is giving support to our charity.”

Professor Christian Ottensmeier, Director of Clinical Research at The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre.

The Clatterbridge Fairy was specially created by our Charity Patron, internationally acclaimed sculptor, Emma Rodgers.

We asked Emma to share why she's supporting our Fairy Appeal:
"I have been a Patron of Clatterbridge Cancer Charity for 14 years now, as my mum is cared for there. They are incredible with her and getting the 'all clear' was a wonderful moment. They've done more for me than I can ever do for them, so creating the Fairy seems a small thing, really.

And this year I will be dedicating my Fairy to Professor Myint and the Team at Clatterbridge love from Emma, Milly, Annie and family."
