The Ralph Bates Pancreatic Cancer Research Fund is a UK-based charity (number 1007819) set up in 1992 in memory of British actor Ralph Bates, who died of the disease six weeks after diagnosis. The main objective of the fund is to provide grants for research into causes, diagnosis and treatments of pancreatic cancer. The grants enable equipment to be purchased or leased and cover the employment costs and expenses of researchers. ==Fundraising== The Fund receives no direct Government assistance, except for Gift Aid on qualifying donations. All donations are from private individuals and institutions such as Freemasons' Lodges, with a small amount deriving from corporations.
