Currently, a woman dies of ovarian cancer every two hours in the UK.
Ovarian Cancer Action is the UK’s leading ovarian cancer charity, dedicated to improving the survival rates of this disease.
We do this by funding world-class research at the Ovarian Cancer Action Research Centre based at Imperial College Hammersmith Hospital, by funding symptoms awareness campaigns aimed at women and healthcare professionals, and by giving people affected by the disease a voice, encouraging them to become advocates of the disease with policy makers, healthcare professionals and scientist.

About Cancer Research UK
We pioneer life-saving research to bring forward the day when all cancers are cured.
From our volunteers and supporters to our scientists, doctors and nurses, we're all here to save more lives by preventing, controlling and curing all cancers. Together, we're leading the world in discovering and developing newer, kinder treatments and getting closer to cures. As a result we've helped double survival rates in just 40 years.
But we can't stop there. Every two minutes someone in the UK is diagnosed with cancer and this statistic is getting worse. We don't receive Government funding for our research, so every step towards beating cancer relies on every pound donated. Research saves lives and our work is critical to ensuring more people beat this devastating disease.
Sooner or later we will find a way to cure all cancers. Let's make it sooner
