Support Debbie Fund and help find a cure for cervical cancer

        

debbie fund is set up in memory of Debbie Phillips, who died of Cervical Cancer on 11th February 2010. During the progression of Debbie’s disease, it became apparent that there was no dedicated research into a drug treatment specifically for Cervical Cancer. debbie fund was set up to raise sufficient funds to ensure that the necessary research could be carried out by a team of scientists at University College London. Due to the amazing efforts of debbie fund's supporters, research is already under way. Please, follow the Links and find out more about debbie fund. Become a supporter and help prevent other women, wives and mothers, like Debbie, and their families from falling victim to Cervical Cancer.
