A Lichfield based charity raising awareness and funds for CyberKnife Cancer Radiotherapy Treatment.

The Stan Bowley Trust became a registered Charity in October 2011. They were formed by friends and family of Alan “Stan” Bowley, a former Staffordshire police officer who died of cancer. Stan’s journey with cancer began many years earlier having being diagnosed initially in June 2000. As a result of this he received traditional surgery to remove a tumour from his duodenum and part of his pancreas.

Seven years after the first diagnosis he received the devastating news that the cancer had returned. This time it was growing around a major blood vessel and the signs for his future were not favourable.

It was at this stage Stan discovered CyberKnife.                                                                                              

CyberKnife at that time was not available in the United Kingdom. It was available in Europe and beyond. However, due to the lack expertise in relation to Stan’s condition in Europe at the time, it was decided that Washington D.C. was the ideal place for him to be treated.
