A promotional video for the first UK Stand Up for Cancer fundraising event, involving
Channel 4 and Cancer Research UK.

 

The video, which features people whose family members have been affected by cancer,
and some who themselves have experienced it, invites viewers to make a text donation
of £5 or £10. Singer Kylie Minogue says that donors’ money will “help change the
odds” in overcoming cancer.
