In early 2018 Ruth Strauss, wife of former England cricket captain Sir Andrew Strauss, was diagnosed with a terminal lung cancer that affects non-smokers. Ruth died in December 2018; she was 46 years old and mother to two children, then aged 10 and 13. In her memory, Sir Andrew Strauss set up the Ruth Strauss Foundation with two missions:

To ensure that every family with a child facing the death of a parent from cancer is offered the professional emotional support they need to prepare the family for the future.
To advocate for more awareness, research and collaboration in the fight against non-smoking lung cancers, so that together we find the causes sooner and improve outcomes.
