About Prostate Cancer Research
We support bold science, backed by patients, to keep our research both cutting-edge and relevant. Patients give feedback directly to scientists so that they can understand, learn and modify their research so that what they do in a lab will make a difference to patients.
In May 2020 when the pandemic hit, patients were relieved that PCR didn’t skip a beat. We didn’t allow our research to stop or slow down – in fact, we actively went out in search of new innovative projects to support.
We fill the gaps. When we first wanted to expand our projects we analysed the entire prostate cancer research system. We found out that there are some areas of research that desperately need more investment, where a lack of knowledge is preventing the situation for patients from improving fast enough. We actively invest to fill those gaps.
So far, our scientists have discovered a potential way to make radiotherapy work more effectively and with fewer side effects. They invented a new technique to discover networks of on/off signals for cancer, which we hope to use to develop more treatments. They started investigating how fat fuels prostate cancer, and using AI to predict whether or not a cancer needs treatment. We ran national campaigns to empower patients to ask questions and get the right treatment for them, and to talk about and get support for the side effects of treatment.
We do all of this in honour of the men and families who have already been through things no family should have to go through, and to create a future where no one needs to fear a prostate cancer diagnosis.
Fundraising focus
Over the last few years, we have successfully diversified our income streams, improving our capability of raising restricted funds for specific projects through focusing on trusts & foundations, statutory, corporates, and major donors, while at the same time ensuring we have flexible and sustainable unrestricted funding through our events & community, legacies, and individual giving.
The target now, as part of PCR’s Fundraising Strategy for 2021-26, is to grow our income year on year to £9.8 million by 2026.
We’re going full steam ahead with our fundraising strategy for 2021-26. We’re ready for this challenge and we need a dedicated colleague to help achieve this goal.
Key Responsibilities are detailed on the attached Job Description
Skills and Competencies
We are looking for a keen learner, effective implementer and creative person to become an integral part of our Events & Community Team and create and deliver exciting fundraising activities and build long lasting relationships with external suppliers and supporters. The candidate would ideally have the following:
- A successful track record in the organisation and delivery of different types of events.
