"Thanks to the incredible support of the Trustees at the Catherine Cookson Charitable Trust, we have been able to deliver world-leading research in Newcastle and beyond, which is helping to transform the lives of people facing cancer.\r\nThe CRUKNewcastle Centreis home to a CRUKDrug Discovery Programme and the NewcastleAdultandPaediatricExperimental Cancer Medicine Centreswhich bring together lab scientists and clinicians to speed up the flow of ideas and new treatments from the lab to the clinic. Our seniorresearch nursesin Newcastle facilitate the delivery ofhigh-quality clinical trials and studies, getting new treatments into the clinic sooner.\r\nThrough the world-class research we&rsquo;re funding with the help of the Catherine Cookson Charitable Trust, our scientists at the CRUK Newcastle Centre are making tremendous progress. From personalising treatment for children&rsquo;s brain tumours, to making immunotherapy more effective for people with liver cancer, we have been able to fund key research programmes in Newcastle which are vital to our mission to beat cancer. Thanks to the exceptional support of the Trust this year, we have been able to equip our scientists, doctors and nurses in Newcastle and elsewhere in the UK to advance their work at pace and deliver the outcomes that are so desperately needed.\r\nOur vision at Cancer Research UK is to bring forward the day when all cancers are cured &ndash; from the most common types to those that affect just a few people. We support over 4,000 scientists, doctors and nurses to find new ways to diagnose cancer earlier, develop new treatments and inform policy makers and the public about reducing cancer risk."
