The Grace Kelly Childhood Cancer Trust is offering a project grant of up to £100,000, over three years.
This grant is available for a clearly defined research project that addresses a key question into one of the following research priorities for children and young people:
1. Patients with poor outcomes from diagnosis
2. Research supporting trials or biomarker studies
3. Patients with rare tumours
Our project grants may support stand-alone projects, research that is part of a wider project or trial, or research that is likely to lead to a further, larger grant application to a major funder of research.
The funding for this project has been provided by the Grace Kelly Childhood Cancer Trust and our amazing special-named funds who have done the most incredible fundraising activities to help make this possible. We would like to say a very special thank you to each of the following Named Funds for their hard work and incredible dedication: Ada Princess Fund, Connall Our Superhero, Edward’s Fund, Ella’s Fund, Esther’s Smiles, Inspirational Issy, Sophie’s Wish, Evelyn’s Fund and Maya Superstar. Without your fundraising efforts, this simply would not have been possible.
As accredited members of the AMRC (Association of Medical Research Charities), all applications will be externally reviewed and then scored and ranked by our expert-led Research Advisory Panel which will then make a recommendation to the Trustees of the Grace Kelly Childhood Cancer Trust.
