Ovarian Cancer Action

Accelerating progress to make ovarian cancer a survivable disease for all women


We are the UK’s ovarian cancer research charity. In the UK only 1 in 3 women live more than 10 years after diagnosis. We are working to better prevent, treat and spot ovarian cancer. So that by 2032 at least half of women with ovarian cancer live for 10 years. 

We back researchers looking for ways to find cancer early. We team up with clinicians trialing new treatments. And, with our inspiring community, we campaign for equal access to treatment for women of every age, race and postcode.     

We are Ovarian Cancer Action and we’ll be here until no woman dies of ovarian cancer.
