PANCREATIC CANCER UK – £1 DONATION ON YOUR BILL FOR NOVEMBER 2024
It’s Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month and we ask you to join us in raising critical awareness.
A subject very close to our hearts, pancreatic cancer is unfortunately the disease with the lowest survival rate of all common cancers.
Symptoms are often vague, there are delays in diagnosis and treatment referrals are seriously set back. As a result, 9 out of 10 people with pancreatic cancer don’t get the necessary treatment they need, to give them the best chance to survive.
More awareness, will lead to more people surviving and more research might lead to a breakthrough in early diagnosis.
To honour the memory of our beloved Christos, whose loss was devastating to us, we have partnered with Pancreatic Cancer UK for the last 3 years. We have raised more than £72,553 by organising #WalkTheRealGreek, a charity half marathon walk to raise money, and through our food; when you order our delicious Pork Skewer- which was Christo’s favourite Greek delicacy – 25p is donated directly to the charity.
In addition, this November, for Pancreatic Cancer Awareness month, we are adding an option for our guests to add an extra £1 to their bill, in support of PCUK.
This month is a chance for the pancreatic cancer community to come together to raise vital funds and awareness, to remember those who sadly lost the battle and to acknowledge those living with, or beyond the disease.
During this month, all pancreatic cancer charities and groups from around the world unite to transform the future for everyone affected by this devastating disease.
“We are beyond grateful to everyone at The Real Greek and its customers for supporting Pancreatic Cancer UK for over three and a half years. It’s a pleasure working with you all in memory of Chrisos and we are so proud of everything we are achieving together. It means so much to have such a popular brand working with us to take on the deadliest common cancer. For too long, pancreatic cancer has been overlooked, underfunded, and left behind. As a result, more than half of people still die within three months of diagnosis. Families are often left with only hope to hold on to, but we know hope isn’t enough. Action taken today can transform the future for people with pancreatic cancer. The money raised by The Real Greek will help us go above and beyond for everyone affected by the disease, bringing more support, improved detection, and more effective treatments for the deadliest common cancer.”
Amy Hannagan, Corporate Partnerships Manager at Pancreatic Cancer UK
We appreciate any help you’re willing to offer, as we keep memories of Christo’s amazing spirit and personality with us always. His legacy will live forever through our restaurants which were his passion and life’s purpose.
