Remembering Roy

Roy Castle was a beloved entertainer. He could dance, sing and act. He could play dozens of instruments and held multiple world records. But this isn’t what made him special; it was the selfless way he lived out the final few months of his life.

30 years ago, Roy embarked on an epic three-day journey – the Tour of Hope – raising the profile of lung cancer and funds for essential research.

To commemorate this special occasion, we want to hear your memories of Roy. Leave a dedication to one of the good one...

Leave a Dedication

I grew up watching Roy Castle on TV....always smiling, full of energy & dedication! Selflessly giving the final days of his life to raising funds & the profile of vital lung cancer screening. Last year I took part in Strictly Ballroom to raise funds for Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation. It was truly one of the best experiences of my life & I am taking part again this year. I work in cancer treatment & my mum had treatment for lung cancer in 2007 & I wanted to give something back. Thanks Roy ❤️
