The Trustee board is now a unique mix of the UK's leading medical and research specialists and bladder cancer patients. Our medical trustees represent bladder cancer specialists within urology, scientific research, cancer nursing and general practice.  Our patient trustees provide not only the insight of direct personal experience, but are also active and leading members of advisory panels, patient support groups and regional cancer networks. Informed by this wealth of expertise the charity has created exciting new programmes of patient support, directly improving outcomes and research as well as educating the medical profession and the public about bladder cancer, the symptoms and the importance of early diagnosis.
