The Institute of Cancer Research
It’s hard to know what the future might bring but we do know that cancer is something that touches us all.  Over the past 100 years The Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) has made some of the most important and ground-breaking discoveries in cancer research. Cancer patients worldwide are receiving life-saving treatments that were discovered and developed by us.

Over 83% of our expenditure directly supports our research activity and our scientists and clinicians are working daily in our labs – in Chelsea and Sutton, London – to make a real impact on cancer patients lives.   As one of the world’s leading cancer research institutes you can rest assured that by supporting the ICR you will help make the discoveries that defeat cancer and bring hope to future generations of people with cancer.

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.
