Our story

Welcome to the “This Is for Me” campaign, where fitness meets purpose to drive life-changing cancer research. This campaign brings together people from all walks of life to challenge themselves while making a tangible impact on advancing cancer treatments. By bridging the gap between groundbreaking discoveries in the lab and real-world applications, we’re championing translational research — science that directly improves patient outcomes. What is Translational Research? Translational research takes scientific breakthroughs made in the lab and turns them into practical solutions for patients. It’s about moving discoveries from bench to bedside — whether through new treatments, diagnostic tools, or prevention strategies. Your support fuels this journey, helping researchers turn knowledge into cures and hope into reality. The "This Is for Me" campaign has two core components: • The Fundraising Challenge: An inclusive fitness event where participants pledge to walk, run, cycle, roll, swim, or row a distance between 1 and 100 miles. The aim is to push your limits and raise funds for cancer research. #THISISFORME • The Research Impact: We’re showcasing videos from cancer researchers across the UK to highlight the real-world projects your donations can support. This ensures the impact of your contribution is clear and tangible. #THISISFORSCIENCE For more information please visit - thisisfor.org
