The Ricky Casey Trust featured in Metro

Popular news website Metro recently featured The Ricky Casey Trust in one of its articles.

In the story, titled “'We have been left behind': Widow pleads for support for rare kidney cancer after losing husband at 48” — Trust founder Nicola Casey talks about her husband's illness and how she feels that rare cancers often go untreated due to a lack of awareness by medics.

The story comes as we near the end of March — Kidney Cancer Awareness month, and Nicola hopes that telling her story will help to shine a light on more rare forms of cancer, particularly Renal Medullary Carcinoma (RMC) which caused Ricky's death.
