Charities
Cancer Research UK is the world’s leading charity dedicated to beating cancer through research. Over half of all cancer research in the UK is carried out by our scientists. We have discovered new ways to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer that together have saved millions of lives across the world. We have been at the heart of the progress that has already seen survival rates double in the last thirty years. But one in three of us will still get cancer at some point in our lives. Our groundbreaking work, funded entirely by the public, will help ensure that millions more people will survive.
We exist to help improve the lives of people affected by cancer, both those living with cancer and also their families and carers. Our primary focus is to reach and improve the lives of everyone living with cancer.
CLIC Sargent helps children and young people with cancer and their families with the trauma of diagnosis, the often long journey through treatment and continues to support them afterwards. Every day 10 families are told that their child has cancer. Diagnosis often comes as a shock. Treatment usually starts straightaway and can last up to three years. CLIC Sargent is there with clinical, practical and emotional support, every step of the way.
Marie Curie Cancer Care provides high quality nursing, totally free, to give people with terminal cancer and other illnesses the choice of dying at home, supported by their families. It runs nine Marie Curie Hospices across the UK offering free specialist care for patients and support for families. The charity conducts palliative care research to find better ways of caring for terminally ill people and also funds scientists who investigate the causes and treatments of cancer. Charity Registration No 207994 (England & Wales) and SC0 38731 (Scotland)

InterQuest UK Recuitment Squash Tournament
InterQuest Group PLC, one of the leading I.T Staffing companies in the UK is pleased to announce the first ever UK Recruitment Squash Tournament.
The tournament will be open to every recruitment company in the UK, from any sector, any location, with the finals being played on the Glass Squash Court at Canary Wharf March 2012.
This will be a three man a side team tournament with all the profits going to charity. Our prime selected charity this year will be Cancer Research UK, as well as secondary charities including CLIC Sargent, MacMillan and Marie Curie.
The finals will be held the same week as the Canary Wharf Classic part of the world squash calendar, featuring top 10 players in the world.
The Canary Wharf Classic is promoted by Eventis, owned by Tim Garner and ex world number 1 Peter Nicol MBE. The have been very supportive of this event and currently host the Square Mile Squash Tournament the same week for the Financial Services Sector of London.
InterQuest Group is also pleased to announce the opening of a new office in Canary Wharf. Our Financial Services practice, Genesis will be based there, providing even better access to clients and candidates within Banking and Financial Services.
The tournament is the brainchild of one of our founding Directors – Matt Crawcour, an ex professional himself. He commented, ‘with such a fantastic court in an amazing location, it seems appropriate the IT Recruitment sector compete for the squash title whilst raising funds for charity.’
