Founder of Drive, Ben Fender dined at The House of Lords yesterday with long-term partners Cancer Research UK.
After seven years of working closely together, and producing events such as Emeralds & Ivy, Sound & Vision and the inaugural Stand Up To Cancer Gala , Drive were honoured to be invited to Cancer Research UK’s ‘Thank You’ lunch, hosted by The Lord Evans of Watford.
One of the highlights was Professor Julian Downward, who leads the London Research Institute speaking about his crucial work into fighting cancer. Professor Downwards work is improving our understanding of what goes wrong in cancer, leading to new ways to treat the disease, it was a unique and exciting opportunity to hear an expert of his stature being positive about the real difference Cancer Research UK.
“Each year Drive look forward to our work with Cancer Research UK, it is an extremely important and worthwhile cause, and we always enjoy the projects from both a production and creative side. I was honoured to be invited and to be sitting among such inspirational, brave and driven people as Findlay Young. We appreciate Drives work being so highly valued and look forward to working alongside Cancer Research UK for many years to come.”
