BOWELBABE FUND
The BowelBabe Fund for Cancer UK, founded by the late Dame Deborah James, is dedicated to raising awareness about bowel cancer, funding research and supporting individuals affected by the disease.
In December 2016, Deborah James, known as BowelBabe, was diagnosed with incurable bowel cancer. She courageously shared her personal journey with unflinching honesty to raise awareness of bowel cancer and educate on early detection.
In May 2022, Deborah announced that the time had come to stop treatment and receive palliative care at home with her family. However, defiant to the last, she was determined to still give one last, big F*** YOU to cancer. That’s why, together with her family, she set up the Bowelbabe Fund for Cancer Research UK – to support causes she cared about and give more people more time with the people they love.
BowelBabe Fund for Cancer UK, work to raise funds for Cancer UK's vital research and support programs. By organizing engaging initiatives, events, and campaigns, they aim to make a meaningful impact in the fight against bowel cancer and improve the lives of those affected by this disease.
