Live Cancer Free was founded in 2015 by a dedicated team of three doctors with PhD in cancer prevention from the University of Leicester. Our core mission is to reduce cancer-related deaths by promoting preventative measures, building awareness of risk factors in highly deprived areas in Leicester, and helping people to recognise the early signs of cancer. We reinforce this work by engaging local communities with impactful projects, designed to improve overall health, fitness and well-being. During COVID-19, many elderly cancer patients (and their carers) were under greater pressure. Reacting to this we distributed over 2,900 free food parcels to highly deprived areas of Leicester over the course of the pandemic. In 2020 Live Cancer Free were proud to be featured twice on BBC Radio Leicester’s ‘Making a Difference’ program for running successful projects across highly deprived areas in Leicester. In 2021 we have received a personal letter of thanks from the Lord-Lieutenant of Leicestershire, Mike Kapur; her majesty the Queen’s representative for the contribution we have made to the community during the pandemic. The Live Cancer Free office is based in The Exchange Building, 5 Lee Street, Leicester, LE1 3AH, with activities hosted in various community centers across the city to ensure accessibility for all participants. We identify the needs of our service users by engaging directly with the communities, using both on-the-ground outreach and social media platforms. In addition to food support, we continue to provide healthy eating workshops, educational materials, fitness classes, and well-being programs. All services are entirely free or toward small donation, as we aim to remove any financial barriers that may prevent access to vital health and wellness resources. We currently collect surplus food only through Neighbourly, and this meets our needs. Our latest updates, events, and community activities are shared on our social media platforms, which serve as a bridge between our organisation and the communities we serve: Instagram: @Livecancerfreeleicesterltd Facebook: Live Cancer Free Leicester ltd
