Throwback to 2012, when the WCRF International team joined cancer experts from around the world at the World Cancer Congress in Montreal. 🌎
For more than 14 years, WCRF International has been part of this important global gathering, sharing the latest evidence on cancer prevention and ...working with others to help turn research into action.
This September, we’ll be doing it again as the World Cancer Congress heads to Hong Kong.
The Congress brings together people working across cancer research, healthcare, policy, and advocacy from more than 120 countries. It’s an important opportunity to share what we know about preventing cancer and to learn from others working towards the same goal.
We’re proud to be taking WCRF’s cancer prevention research to a global stage once again!
You did it!
Feel proud! Not only for the extra pumping you gave to your heart, but also for your dedication in helping us raise funds so we can learn more, across the globe, about how cancer can be slowed and stopped.

New shoes. Photos on the doorstep. Another first day back at school 🎒
For many parents, September brings moments they'll treasure. But for a parent who has faced breast cancer, it can be a milestone they once feared they would never see.
Sarah was diagnosed just one week ...after going birth to her son, Ted. At one point, she wondered whether she would live long enough to see him grow up.
This October, we're asking you to complete 112 Skips a Day for the 11,200 people who die from breast cancer each year in the UK.
Because behind that number are thousands of people – mothers, daughters, sisters, partners and friends – and thousands of moments their families want more of.
