The Eve Appeal
General Enquiries: 020 7605 0100
At The Eve Appeal our vision is to realise a future where fewer women, trans men and non-binary people develop and many more survive gynaecological cancers. To do this we not only fund research into risk prediction, screening and early detection, but we raise awareness by providing key information on the five gynaecological cancers, and run our nurse-led information service, Ask Eve, which is here to provide information around gynaecological health and answer your questions.
Whether you're worried about any unusual symptoms you've been having, you've just been diagnosed and want to talk to a trained gynae specialist nurse, or perhaps you're worried about a friend or relative who has been diagnosed, we are here to answer your questions and concerns.
