Why It Matters
World Cancer Research Fund UK funds groundbreaking research to stop cancer before it starts.
We receive no UK government funding - and our prevention research is only possible thanks to public support.
This short quiz shares powerful, science-backed insights that could help protect you and your family.
The Vocal Minority gives people a voice to change policy by running polls, petitions, and surveys to help you make a difference to the issues you care about the most.
Body fatness is linked to increased risk of at least 13 different cancers. World Cancer Research Fund’s Continuous Update Project — one of the largest ongoing cancer prevention research programmes in the world — continually reviews global studies to understand these links. Their findings help shape NHS guidance and international policy recommendations.
Up to 40% of cancers could be prevented through healthier lifestyles — and for bowel cancer, it’s over 50%. These figures come from major scientific reviews led and funded by World Cancer Research Fund. Their ongoing research helps refine prevention guidelines and informs public health campaigns across the UK and globally. The challenge is that each year, promising research projects have to be turned away due to lack of funding.
