Patron - Fern Britton

Fern has been involved with Genesis Research Trust since 2004 and has taken part in Women for Women challenges in Egypt, India, Cuba & Jordan.

"I am delighted to have the honour of being Patron to Genesis Research Trust. For my generation, the advent of IVF was my first link to Professor Winston and his amazing colleagues. I have IVF twins. They were born in 1993 after a long haul of fertility treatment. They are tall, handsome, funny, wonderful boys and they have brought me tremendous joy, pride and exhaustion in equal measure. My family means everything to me. I cannot tell them often enough how much I love them all.

But there are many women and men striving to have a happy and healthy family, and at Genesis, Robert and his team of brilliant scientists, strive daily to create those families. Women for Women raises money to keep that research going and to keep jobs open for those brilliant women scientists who take time out to have their families and return to work to continue their invaluable work.

I help by getting on my bike and raising funds. I would love you to join me one day! Shall I see you next year?
All my Love Fern x"
