Governance
Hope Against Cancer is governed by a Board of Trustees. Each of our trustees is a volunteer, giving their time and expertise to benefit our charity.
Our trustees come from all walks of life, but what they have in common is a determination to improve outcomes for cancer patients in the Leicestershire and Rutland area.
Our Research Advisory Panel is made up of experts from our local universities who closely follow trends in cancer research and who advise the board of trustees on where our funding is best spent to ensure the biggest impact. Their details are noted below.
Our President of the Charity is David Wyrko, former Chief Constable of Leicestershire.
Our Chair of Trustees is Richard Moore.
