Chief Executive:  Sarah Crane

Sarah Crane joined the Pelican Cancer Foundation at the beginning of March 2008.  She had previously been Chief Executive of the Army Families Federation. 

Sarah`s role is to translate the charity`s objectives into actions.  To achieve this there is an annual curriculum of courses and meetings for clinicians and members of the multi disciplinary team to discuss and develop advances in cancer treatments.

Sarah works closely with the Research Review Panel to maintain the charity`s research portfolio of worthwhile studies that advance our understanding of current treatment for rectal, liver and prostate cancer.

Administrator:  Juliet Crawley

Juliet`s role as the Administrator of the Pelican Centre involves whatever it takes to ensure the smooth-running of Pelican as well as the full organisation of delegate bookings for all courses. She is involved in fundraising and maintains contact with donors.
 
Says Juliet `..having been at Pelican since its beginning it is exciting to see how it has expanded and evolved over the years - certainly my job is never dull! As an out of hours activity I also run the Pelican Film Society which now has over a hundred members. We have monthly showings of out of the ordinary/foreign films and are able to make substantial donations to the Pelican Cancer Foundation as well`

Audio/Visual and Computing: Jason Flowers

Working for an external company that provides consultancy, design and support, Jason has been helping Pelican achieve their goal of cutting edge live A/V broadcasts for ten years.

 

 

 

We are situated in a purpose-built centre, the Ark, in Basingstoke where we have state of the art teaching facilities, including high definition video links to operating theatres so that live surgery can be shown to groups of up to 180 delegates involved in the care and treatment of patients with bowel, pelvic and liver cancers.  We also have dedicated research offices where we coordinate international multi-centred research studies.
