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.

Our Vision
A world of protection and opportunity for children living alone and at risk on the streets.
Railway Children is an international children's charity. We fight for vulnerable children who live alone at risk on the streets, where they suffer abuse and exploitation.
In the UK, society often denies their existence, and in other countries the problem is so prevalent that it has become 'normal'.
They run away or are forced to leave homes where they suffer poverty, violence, abuse and neglect. They find themselves living on the streets because there is nowhere else to go and no one left to turn to. The problems they face on the streets are often even worse than those they endured at home. Every day we fight to change their story.
Railway Children race to reach children as soon as they arrive on the streets and intervene before an abuser can. Our pioneering work enables us to get to street children before the streets get to them.
