Our Chosen Charities
The Plum Layton Charitable Trust
The Plum Layton Charitable Trust was setup in 2011 predominantly to raise fund for pancreatic cancer research. The fun is supporting the work being done at the Hammersmith Hospital and Imperial College under Dr Harpeet Wasan. Thus far, over £400,00 has been raised and has enabled the Hammersmith to setup a specific unit to investigate why pancreatic cancer does not respond to traditional treatments. The landowners of the showground have a personal connection to Plum Unlimited.
