Breakthrough Breast Cancer’s vision is for ‘a future free from the fear of breast cancer’. We are committed to funding innovative research of the highest scientific quality that shows clear potential to benefit people affected by breast cancer. Rigorous, independent assessments are carried out on all research proposals submitted to Breakthrough to ensure they meet this high standard.
