Sector impact

AMRC charities have invested £16 billion in research over the last decade, and bring much more than money to the sector.

They have a laser focus on their disease areas and a deep understanding of their patient communities. 

They fund where there’s an opportunity to accelerate progress – their research improves lives and offers hope to patients.
