A lot can change in 25 years. In 2001, Tony Blair was prime minister, a pint of milk cost 55p and median five-year cancer survival was 43.6%. It was also the year Tesco began sponsoring our Race for Life events.
Since then, we’ve built a longstanding, sector-leading partnership with Tesco that’s raised more than £75m to help beat cancer. From bake sales and bucket collections to golf days, marathons and treks, we’re continually blown away by the support and enthusiasm of Tesco’s staff and customers for our cause.
Today, median five-year cancer survival has risen to 55%, which means more people living longer, better lives thanks to advances in preventing, diagnosing and treating cancer that Tesco has helped make possible.
