Dedicated to better outcomes

All cancer patients and their families want a positive outcome. Sadly, this isn’t always the case. Our work is dedicated to improving the outcomes for some of the cancers with the highest mortality rates. Indeed, we pioneered the early bowel cancer test kits, and the research we’ve funded has helped patients to find hope, even in the toughest times.

BRIGHT currently supports clinicians and researchers at The Royal Surrey Cancer Centre and the HPB Surgical Unit at the Royal Surrey County Hospital. 

"With continued thanks to Dr Essapen and Professor Karanjia and their teams for their outstanding care and attention during my cancer journey."
