More about Action
Since we began in 1952, Action Medical Research has been funding medical breakthroughs to help save and change the lives of babies and children.
The prospects for finding new cures and treatments is almost within our grasp. Right now we are funding vital research projects with many more ready to go – but we simply can’t fund them all.
With your help, we’re determined to change this and make a real difference to children lives.
