sorted byI believe it is a fundraising pledge. It is not compulsory and you don't need to make up the shortfall if you do not get enough donations. If you are getting free entry for a charity event it is right to make fundraising efforts. However, there is no need to worry if you are concerned that £50 would be too high a target. Good luck
What rates? Cancer survival?
I'm a cancer survivor.... I'm still here because of research by universities worldwide, the NHS, and worldwide pharmaceutical investment in research.
Again, cruk have wasted hundreds of millions on senior exec and managerial salaries, not a Single treatment has been researched.
I'm very pro charity, but juggernauts like cruk are full of it.

250k per year. Being responsible for the world's largest cancer charity sounds like hard work to me
Try finding any charity 100% run by volunteers in 2022...
Maybe the should finally start saying what actually causes the cancer in the first place, so maybe people will move away from all the junk food and artificial sweeteners and will start eating better (not saying that’s the only reason of having it, but just an example)
Remember, big pharma will never allow for a cure for cancer to be discovered, as they’ve got too much money too loose
Events actually cost a heck of a lot to organise! Think of road closures, support, medical staff, all the publicity, staffing needed to organise/orchestrate such a large event...
No it isn't.... scandalous salary.
Also, what treatments have cruk developed with the countless hundreds of millions over the years?
Better to support local charities that support people at the grass roots level, charities like velindre, maggies, marie curie etc. (edited)
£250k is a lot of money in a vacuum but the charity does manage £634m per year. If there’s problems with the charity’s use of money then it will be down to mismanagement in the rest of the org, not with the MD’s salary.
It’s too easy to slip into cynicism about everything if you’re not careful. (edited)

The key is to understand for every £1 donated how much is spent on the actual causes the charity was setup for.
They recently sold off a lot of their real estate but sure. If you contact their desk in Oxford they used to give the option for your money to only be used specifically for research.
Everything is becoming like a celebrity endorsement or glamourised event with these things.
with the money they have raised no one should get cancer but the research into the causes of cancer isn’t used (edited)

Yeah looks like they don’t fund any research… I’d hop back under your bridge and troll someone else.

You're calling a cancer survivor a nutter?
I hope to god u you don't have a real life experience of this particular subject.
Believe me, when your in despair and suffering, it's not the likes of cruk that help, nor have they been involved in any of the treatments or mental health support either.
Medical professionals, pharmaceutical companies, charities on the ground are the ones that help with treatment, not this scam of a charity that blows hundreds of millions a year on absurd waste, mostly on middle to senior management.

You do you, donate if you want or don’t want, but don’t continue to be cross and ignorant. They won’t help every single person going through cancer, but saying they don’t help in these spaces is nonsense.
and £250k a year isn’t that much really.
I know multiple people that get more than that a week.
Still seems on the excessive side to me.
Back to the institiution you go!
Geoffrey Rose, one of Britain’s leading epidemiologists, used to point out that if we were to eradicate death from cancer, life expectancy would rise by less than four years. Yet the difference in life expectancy between the richest and poorest in Britain is around 20 years.
We possibly have much better ways to spend our money than on cancer research. (edited)
Which part?
Take some time and do research on few ingredients every now and then when buying stuff to eat.
You’ll be surprised with what you’ll find.
We’ll never be able to avoid everything that’s bad for us, but we can try and reduce intake of those most dangerous ones
They’ve been on the market 20 years, didn’t hear a single breakthrough on their part, so I don’t need a source and not trying to lie for attention nor a stirrer
I just think that we can do more good by donating to our local charities or food banks and actually make a difference, especially nowadays
Why? They don't do anything
Yeah sure you do....
Yep.
It’s not impossible, quite a few people in PE, banking and finance get more than that, not to mention legal firms.
I personally know probably 4-5 that out earn that.
one guy I know got a cheque for between £20,000,000-£30,000,000 mid way through the year a year or two ago, all taxed at a lower rate (I think it was 20-28% at the time)
He got multiple cheques that year related to companies that have been sold and they get a slice of them.
The rest are in that region. (edited)
.. is hard to do when working home still bcz covid .. could had asked many co-workers.. may do a fund raise then online
here is terms ...
1. To help us beat cancer sooner, we ask each Race for Life/Pretty Muddy participant to try and raise at least £50 for Cancer Research UK.
2. All participants have a legal responsibility to ensure that all fundraising monies/donations received in connection with an Event are paid to Cancer Research UK, and we ask that you do this as soon as possible after the Event. Money pledged via online fundraising pages is collected automatically. Other ways to pay in fundraising monies/donations are as follows:
- Calling the Race for Life hotline number given at the top of these Rules and providing credit or debit card details to make a payment over the phone.
- Sending a cheque made payable to "Cancer Research UK" (stating your full name, unique reference number and event on the back) to:
Race for LifePO Box 1579
