We gratefully acknowledge support from the following organisations for providing funding for the symposium:
The Elizabeth Coteman Fund was set up by the Coteman family in memory of Elizabeth Coteman, an outstanding wife and mother, who died from pancreatic cancer on 22 April 2010 at the age of 59.
The work of the Fund focuses on two related issues, both of which are designed to tackle the worst effects of pancreatic cancer and find solutions for future sufferers:
- Support for patients, families and carers
- Support for research
As well as providing direct financial support where it is needed, the Fund acts as a think-tank and advocate on issues affecting patients and their families. Amongst its priorities are:
- Greater general awareness of pancreatic cancer
- Greater empowerment for patients and carers
- An improved patient experience and quality of life
- Better patient access to clinical trials
