OGCancerNI are delighted to be able to help and support our good friend Dr Richard Turkington with his ongoing research into various aspects of this disease.
This week our Chairperson Helen Setterfield was able to present him and his team with a cheque for £10,582.00 for the purchase of a specialist freezer and cell counter. We hope this purchase helps a little towards the amazing research he is doing.
