We are a start-up Not for Profit (NFP) organisation raising funds and awareness for high mortality rate cancers. High mortality rate cancers are cancers that are less commonly diagnosed resulting in a lack of research and low improvement on five year survival rates over the last 30 years.

The Aftershock aims to advance the scientific and medical research related to the diagnosis, treatment, cure and prevention of high mortality rate cancers.

The Aftershock focuses on the 16 most frequently diagnosed less common cancers: non-Hodgkin lymphoma, leukemia, mesolthelioma, myeloma, kidney, bladder, stomach, brain, liver, oesophageal, pancreatic, endometrial/uterine, thyroid, gallbladder, small intestine, and bone cancer.
