The aims of the charity are twofold:
The Laura Crane Trust is the only UK charity funding ongoing research, specifically into cancer in teenagers and young adults (13-24 year-olds), where cancer often strikes in its rarer and more complex forms, often requiring harsh regimes of treatment in an attempt to save lives.
The trust also funds various measures to improve the lives of these young cancer patients whilst they are undergoing treatment.
