Pancreatic Cancer UK is dedicated to fighting pancreatic cancer through support, information, research and campaigning.

We want improved survival and quality of life for everyone living with pancreatic cancer. With this aim in mind, we seek to:

* provide easy access to the best and most up-to-date information on pancreatic cancer via our website

* run a support network and a discussion forum for pancreatic cancer patients, their carers and families to enable them to share experiences, advice and inspiration

* provide individual support and advice via email and telephone

* fund research and other projects of benefit to patients and their families - eg research into early detection and better treatments

* raise awareness of pancreatic cancer, particularly amongst GPs, policy makers and politicians and the general public, providing a powerful campaigning voice for all people living with pancreatic cancer, and their families.

We are committed to ensuring patients and their families are represented at every level of the charity.
