Your MP could be in the room when brain cancer is debated in Parliament in just 10 days. Click here to ask them to attend - it only takes 1 minute, and the message is already written for you.

With a new Cancer Minister now in post, this is the first big chance we have to show that families across the country are calling for change.

You very kindly signed my petition calling for Owain’s Law: helping make sure cancer patients no longer miss out on key treatments or diagnostics because their tissue was stored in the wrong way.

I am so grateful to everyone who has already taken action, shared the campaign or supported us in any way. I know I have asked for your help before and I never take that support for granted. Every message, signature and share has helped keep this issue on the agenda.

Brain tumours are the biggest cancer killer of children and young adults under 40. Half of all brain cancer patients die within a year of diagnosis. And patients are still missing out on treatment options simply because their tissue was not stored in the right way.

That is what we are asking Parliament to help fix. Every time an MP hears from someone in their constituency, it reminds them this is not just a policy issue. It is about families like mine, and thousands more, who need better choices, better information and better chances.

Please, if you have just 1 minute today, click here to ask your MP to attend the debate and speak up. You only need to enter your postcode and name.

With heartfelt thanks,

Ellie
