ABOUT US

Our Founder’s Legacy

Rose Thompson dedicated her life to tackling the deep-rooted inequalities in cancer care—both professionally and personally. Her remarkable career, extensive knowledge, and personal journey with cancer, which ultimately led to her passing, highlight the urgent need for change in how we approach cancer care, despite the tireless efforts of healthcare professionals.

Over four decades, Rose championed the fight against cancer disparities. Her work laid the foundation for this charity, which continues her mission. She believed that to truly understand the challenges faced by marginalised communities, one must first walk a mile in their shoes. This belief in proactive empathy shaped every aspect of her life and service. Today, her legacy inspires us to continue striving for a more equitable future in cancer care.

We are therefore committed to making this vision a reality by turning this passion into action!
