BRIGHT Cancer Care focuses on research and treatment options for patients with gastrointestinal (GI) and hepato-pancreato-biliary (HPB) cancers. Its work funds research projects into different treatments for these cancers and funds new equipment for surgeries, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiotherapy and other advanced treatments. (https://lnkd.in/eh-kJNrB) Founded in 2006 after the passing of Karen Clifford, Skcin - The Karen Clifford Skin Cancer Charity was set up to boost awareness of skin cancer, promote prevention methods and early detection in the UK. Skcin’s mission is to prevent people from becoming patients. The most at-risk group is 15 to 34 year-olds with 1 in 4 men affected as opposed to 1 in 5 women.

We'd like to say a huge welcome to Trinity Francis who has joined the WOMAC Committee to support with Publicity and Press Releases. Trinity has a few thoughts she'd like to share: "Like almost everyone, cancer has taken from and scarred my family and friends in more ways than one. WOMAC has offered me a cathartic outlet to go on the offensive and help charities in the good fight against cancer, not only looking for cures, but in every facet that it touches people's lives, from palliative care, to supporting loved ones who endure its devastation. I feel incredibly fortunate to have been given the opportunity to serve on this Committee and the responsibility entrusted in me by the women of WOMAC".
