Research impact

Over 60 years, we've invested more than £500 million in blood cancer research which has led to a long line of breakthroughs that have improved treatments and saved lives.

Together we’ve achieved an incredible amount in the last 60 years, but there’s still much more to be done before we see a day where blood cancer is finally beaten.

We believe that if we continue funding research at the same pace as we have been for the last 60 years, in the next 30 years, we’ll be in a position to ensure there are more effective treatments for every type of blood cancer. We can beat them all!

Our research impact on leukaemia

Many of the leading doctors in the 1960s and 1970s, who looked into finding cures for leukaemia, were either directly funded by us or played a crucial role on our scientific advisory board.
