About 40tude Curing Colon Cancer

40tude Curing Colon Cancer is a UK charity founded in 2011 by Gordon and Fraser Moore, driven by personal loss to combat colon (bowel) cancer. The charity focuses on early detection, prevention, and treatment innovations, believing the disease is preventable and treatable if caught early. It raises public awareness, destigmatises screening, and funds translational research to improve survival rates. The charity works through strategic partnerships, notably with St Mark’s Hospital, the UK’s national centre for bowel disease, supporting initiatives such as clinical fellowships and screening programmes. The charity is volunteer-led as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation and engages a passionate community through endurance challenge fundraising.

What 40tude Curing Colon Cancer funds

The charity exclusively funds innovative projects in early diagnosis, stratified risk assessment, and colon cancer treatment. This includes clinical fellowships, novel screening tools, and public education events. Funding is directed to research that accelerates practical clinical uptake. Beneficiaries are patients at risk across the UK, with geography primarily in England but having UK-wide impact. The charity supports translational research and programmes such as CT Colonography and database infrastructure for outcomes research.

Who can apply

Eligible applicants are UK academic institutions, NHS hospitals, and universities with significant research capacity. Smaller voluntary groups are not prioritised. The charity invites applications from organisations primarily in England, though impact is UK-wide. The charity seeks partners with strong research capability for innovative projects. There is no income threshold specified, and the charity does not consider unsolicited applications.
