Hi my name is Alex, I (along with many others) am currently volunteering to work on Stand Up to Cancer (SU2C)- the most exciting campaign Cancer Research UK has ever done, resulting in Channel 4’s first  live fundraising event on 19th October. Our aim is to raise millions of pounds and get the nation to Stand Up To Cancer.

Stand Up To Cancer – Live
Bringing together a unique mix of entertainment and fundraising, a super-sized group of celebrities will come together to show their support for Stand Up To Cancer. Alan Carr will front a very special chat show with the green room from heaven whilst Davina hosts a high stakes version of The Million Pound Drop, aiming to raise big for Stand Up To Cancer. And throughout the night, Dr. Christian will be on hand to explain the science behind incredible new cancer trials and meet those whose lives depend on breakthroughs in cancer research.

I’m sure you’ve seen the ads! If not it’s worth a look (see below)
