Our purpose is to transform the detection and treatment of colon cancer. We do this in two ways, we raise funds to support leading-edge research that will help transform the treatment of colon cancer and we promote awareness of the need to get tested regularly for colon cancer

It’s a huge privilege to be carrying on the work of Tom Smith, who was supremely brave and talented in equal measure both on and off the rugby pitch

I am proud to be an Ambassador for 40tude in memory of my friend and former teammate Tom Smith. I love how people get so connected with 40tude; it is because everything 40tude does makes a tangible difference: real projects, real results.
