A gift with a real impact this winter
Buy a virtual gift. Share the symptoms. Help fund earlier diagnosis.
This winter, nearly a thousand women will lose their lives to ovarian cancer.
A beaker of wee. A mince pie with a bite taken out.
Not exactly top of anyone’s festive list.
But these are virtual gifts with something important to share; the symptoms of ovarian cancer.
We're spreading the gift of symptoms awareness far and wide so more people know the signs that are crucial to getting diagnosed early.
Buy one for someone this winter, and you’ll be sharing what to look out for while donating to Target Ovarian Cancer on their behalf, supporting our work towards faster and earlier diagnosis.
Early diagnosis saves lives
I didn’t know enough about ovarian cancer for it to even cross my mind. Thankfully my wonderful GP recognised what my symptoms could mean and sent me for scans within 24 hours."
Janet was diagnosed with ovarian cancer at stage one, when the disease is easier to treat.
She says she will always be grateful for her GP recognising the symptoms and arranging an urgent scan:
"I know that things could have been very different if I'd seen someone else that day and I'm forever grateful for her and her actions in saving my life."
Everyone should know the signs
By buying a gift on someone's behalf this festive season, you're helping to make sure everyone affected by ovarian cancer has the best chance of survival.
