Pancreatic cancer

Pancreatic cancer is the deadliest common cancer. More than half of people die within three months of diagnosis.
 
With research underfunded and left behind, people are left with only hope to hold onto. But they deserve more.
 
With your support, we could fund research breakthroughs to help PCUK detect early, treat better and save more lives.

That’s why PCUK is one of the charity beneficiaries of our Great Selby Bike Ride

And that does not include donations via our QR code which lots of people kindly scanned and donated on. That takes a little while longer to process and we will update you with the final total as soon as we know!
 
We couldn’t have done this without the help of David Buckle and Councillor Bob Packham and all at the Sherburn Town Council!
