Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation



The Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation is a British medical research charity dedicated to the curing of lung cancer. The Foundation helps people to quit smoking and provides anti-smoking education for young people. It also lobbies government to take action against smoking, and many people have seen it as being instrumental in outlawing smoking in virtually all enclosed public places across Britain by the summer of 2007.

Roy Castle founded the organisation just before his death in 1994, but did not live to see the organisation's research centre being opened in 1998.
