I am delighted that the Security Excellence Awards has chosen to support the Bobby Moore Fund for Cancer Research UK this year- thank you for sharing in our goal to help tackle bowel cancer.
I founded the Bobby Moore Fund in 1993, in partnership with Cancer Research UK, to honour my husband’s memory and to use his iconic status to save lives, after he died from bowel cancer at the age of 51. Since 1993, the Fund has raised over £12 million. This money is used to fund world class scientific research, so that we can understand bowel cancer better and develop new and kinder treatments. We also aim to raise awareness of the disease, as it is over 80% curable, if caught at an early stage.
Bowel cancer is the second highest cause of cancer death in the UK, with 44 men and women dying every day. Scientific research is very expensive and all our funding comes directly from public donations, which is why the support of events like the Security Excellence Awards is so important.

Thank you for your support
