Apply for a Project Grant to support your blood cancer research. Because the time to beat blood cancer is now.

Introduction

Our Project Grants support world class research proposals that aim to address vital questions in the field of blood cancer in line with our strategic aims and the priorities of people affected by blood cancer.

Our current strategy focuses on bringing forward the day when no one dies of blood cancer or its treatments. We are looking to maximise our research impact by increasing the amount we spend on research and by targeting that spend in the areas where it will have the most effect.
