Dimbleby Cancer Care Research Fund

The Dimbleby Cancer Care Research Fund was established in 2005 to further Dimbleby Cancer Care’s aim of improving support for cancer patients and their carers.

We fund research projects which:

• lead to a better understanding of the needs of patients – from diagnosis, through treatment, to recovery or end of life – and to discover how those needs can best be met.

• offer improved psychosocial care to patients, their families and carers.

• facilitate better communication and continuity of care throughout a patient’s cancer journey.

• test the efficacy of, and improve, existing support strategies.

On completion of funded projects, Dimbleby Cancer Care will use every method at its disposal to disseminate the findings in order to foster widespread good practice.
