Grace Kelly Childhood Cancer Trust announces the release of a £100,000 research grant funding round
The Grace Kelly Childhood Cancer Trust are proud to be able to announce the release of a £100,000 research grant funding round. This funding is being made available to research teams with projects that could help make a difference to children with cancer.
A project grant of up to £100,000 and up to three years is available for a clearly defined research project addressing key questions in rare aggressive solid cancers especially rhabdoid tumours and other rare tissue sarcomas. In particular, we are looking for projects that could potentially make a clinical difference to the treatments that these children receive.
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, Inspirational Issy, Sophie’s Wish and Evelyn’s Fund. 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.
