About mouth cancer Mouth cancer is a devastating disease. Those diagnosed can often suffer from problems with breathing, swallowing, drinking and eating. Speech may also be affected, and occasionally even lost. Facial disfigurement can also occur. This can lead to other problems such as nutritional deficiency, and depression. Difficulties in communication, low self-esteem, social isolation and the impact on relationships can cause as much distress as the cancer itself. Despite this, awareness of this deadly disease remains dangerously low. We're raising money to help more people become aware of the causes, signs and symptoms of mouth cancer. Make a donation A donation to the Mouth Cancer Action Appeal will go towards improving awareness of mouth cancer, influencing policy, and making a direct impact to the quality of people's lives. The more we know about mouth cancer, the better chance we have to beat it. Please select a donation amount (required) £10 Allows us to provide information on the major signs and symptoms of mouth cancer to those most at risk of the disease. Smoking and drinking to excess are two of the major causes of mouth cancer and by making people aware of this we can help them catch cases early. £20 Will go a long way to ensure we can continue to campaign for mouth cancer action. We must reduce the number of lives lost to the disease - awareness and early diagnosis is key and your donation can help us achieve this. £50 Allows us to go out and visit somebody who has been diagnosed with mouth cancer. It is important for those diagnosed with mouth cancer that their voices are heard. Being able to have face-to-face contact offers them support and a chance to open up about their experiences. Quite often, those affected by mouth cancer have a determination to raise awareness of the disease so that it causes less harm to others and we want to help them achieve this.
