A charitable foundation to help fight cancer has been launched by Sir Bobby Robson — former England and Newcastle United manager.
Sir Bobby is he himself battling cancer.
The former England and Newcastle United manager hopes to raise at least £500,000 to help equip a specialist unit for the early detection and treatment of the disease.
Sir Bobby, who is battling cancer for the fifth time and has been told that this time it is incurable, said he wished the foundation to be his legacy to the world.
The Sir Bobby Robson Foundation will initially focus on the early detection and treatment of cancer and will also help support clinical trials of promising new treatments to tackle the disease.
