The Childhood Eye Cancer Trust (CHECT) is the UK’s largest charity in the field of retinoblastoma (Rb). In addition to raising awareness of Rb and supporting families affected by this disease, funding world-class research into retinoblastoma is one of the charity’s key aims.

We are currently inviting applications to the CHECT research fund for grants up to a value of £25,000. We fund projects that will:

  • Improve our understanding of retinoblastoma, including the patterns of disease
  • Develop kinder effective treatments, with fewer side effects, that preserve more vision
  • Reduce the negative impact on all those affected

Applications should be submitted by Friday 1 August 2025.
