ABC UK Invites Applications for Grants to Support Bladder Cancer Research
London, UK – Action Bladder Cancer UK (ABC UK) is calling for applications for grants to fund research projects focused on improving bladder cancer care, treatment, or diagnosis. The organization aims to support high-quality, impactful research that will ultimately enhance patient outcomes and experiences.
Two grant schemes are available through ABC UK: the ABC UK Improving Outcomes for Patients Programme, which offers grants of up to £25,000 and is open to a wide range of applicants, including primary care professionals, urologists, cancer specialists, and researchers; and the ABC UK Nursing Grants, which awards up to £10,000 specifically to urology and cancer nurses, recognizing the crucial role they play in improving patient care and treatment pathways.
“We are thrilled to support essential research into bladder cancer,” says ABC UK CEO Jeannie Rigby. “Despite its high incidence and mortality, bladder cancer has historically been underfunded, with limited advancements in treatment or survival rates over the past thirty years. Our mission is to change this by prioritizing and supporting research that can have a real impact and improve outcomes for bladder cancer patients.”
Projects eligible for funding should be directly related to bladder cancer and demonstrate clear outcomes aimed at improving knowledge, driving change, exploring new approaches, and enhancing patient outcomes and experiences. They can be data-driven, clinic or lab-based, and may also serve as catalysts for further research.
Interested parties can find more information, including full guidelines and previously supported research projects, on the ABC UK website. Applications should be submitted directly to ABC UK through the application form on the website, with the application window closing on 15 March 2025. Those with proposals or ideas are encouraged to contact ABC UK at info@bladdercanceruk.org for further discussion.
