Welcome
to Laserxchange / The Cancer Research Campaign (Now Cancer Research
UK) Donation Pages
Cancer Research UK began operating on 4th
February 2002 as a result of the merger of The Cancer Research
Campaign and Imperial Cancer Research Fund.
We are now the largest volunteer-supported cancer
research organisation in the world with a mission to conquer cancer
through world-class research.
With a dedicated team of 3,000 scientists and an
annual scientific spend of more than £176 million – raised almost
entirely through public donations – our aims are to:
- cure cancer patients faster
- cut numbers of people getting cancer
- bring better treatments to cancer patients
- train more cancer doctors, nurses and scientists for research
- be the authoritative source of information on cancer
- maximise resources available for cancer research
Thanks to people like you, on whose support we rely, we have
already made great progress in preventing cancer and developing
new and effective treatments.
Every
empty computer printer cartridge could generate funds.
Empty
computer printer toner and inkjet cartridges should not be thrown
away in landfill sites when they can be made as new by remanufacture.
This saves the environment and could help the 1,000 doctors and
scientists who work tirelessly at Cancer
Research UK
to
continue finding answers to cancer by understanding the causes
of cancer, learning how cancer can be prevented and by finding
new treatments that will dramatically improve the quality of life
for people with cancer.
Cancer
Research UK
has a contract with Laserxchange
who are one of the UK's leading cartridge remanufacturers.
Each recyclable cartridge will mean a donation to Cancer
Research UK
Once
you have an empty toner cartridge
Cartridges
must be returned with all used components or parts originally
supplied and in their original packaging and boxes. This ensures
they arrive here in good condition. When you have a minimum of
ten cartridges, tape the 10 boxes very firmly together with brown
packing tape, address and quote your reference number on each
package (if you have 27 cartridges make up 3 packages e.g. 2 of
10 and 1 of 7 etc). A parcel must not exceed the following maximums
- package length 1.50 metres, package length plus girth 3.00 metres
and maximum weight of 30.00kgs.
Phone
us quoting your reference number, let us know how many packages,
the total number of cartridges you have for collection, where
they are to be collected from and when. If you have a mixture
of inkjets and cartridges please let us know the breakdown as
we have to calculate the weight of each consignment. We will then
arrange collection (usually the following day) free of charge
by a national carrier (mostly Business Post).
When
collecting inkjets, please store them in the freepost
box which Laserxchange will provide and post it when full.
You
can return small quantities of empty Inkjet cartridges by attaching
our FREEPOST LABEL - Available by calling 01873859901. Please
do NOT send Epson Inkjets - they are not recyclable.
On
receipt of your empty cartridges
Laserxchange
will make the relevant donation and inform Imperial
Cancer Research Fund
that it was your help and generosity that made it possible.

cartridges are recyclable? See
our extensive list.
