Bladder cancer information and support
Fight Bladder Cancer
Fight Bladder Cancer (FBC) was founded in 2010 by Andrew Winterbottom and his wife, Tracy Staskevich, following Andrew's Stage 4 bladder cancer diagnosis. Faced with a lack of support for bladder cancer patients and their families in the UK, they created an online support forum and website to fill this gap.
FBC is a patient-led charity which officially registered in 2014 and several members of our team and Trustee Board have lived experience of bladder cancer. FBC provides personal support and information to anyone affected by bladder cancer in the UK. We also help raise public awareness of the disease, support medical research, and campaign to influence policy at the highest levels, advocating for our patients, to bring about improvements in bladder cancer treatments and patient outcomes.
