Dimbleby Cancer Care

We are in the process of reconstructing this site, so please call back again to view new developments.

Dimbleby Cancer Care is the new name for the Richard Dimbleby Cancer Fund. Founded in 1966, the charity has two aims:

Research and develop care services

• to research and develop care services for those living with cancer. To this end, we provide information, counselling and psychological support, and complementary therapy services at Guy’s & St Thomas’ Hospital, London. Find out more from the Dimbleby Cancer Care Support and Information Centre.

We have established the Dimbleby Cancer Care Research Fund which allocates funding for research which will improve supportive and palliative care for cancer patients. Find out more about the Dimbleby Cancer Care Research Fund

Research the causes of cancer

• to support research into the causes of cancer, for which we have endowed a professorship at King’s College London. The current postholder of the Richard Dimbleby Professorship of Cancer Research is Professor Tony Ng.
