Petition updateRachel’s Rule: Make the NHS check hereditary cancer riskAnnual Hereditary Risk Reviews. Save others from unbearable loss.

Hard to believe this was just 2023 — our vow renewal, a day filled with hope and second chances. It should have been 2020, after Rachel’s surgery and chemotherapy for Grade 2 breast cancer, but Covid delayed it.
By 2024, the cancer had returned. Despite everything she went through, there was still no joined-up review process that could have spotted her recurrence sooner — even after she was diagnosed with a hereditary condition.
That’s why I’m fighting for Rachel’s Rule — Protecting Today, For Tomorrow.
A simple Annual Hereditary Risk Review could save countless lives by ensuring families like ours aren’t missed or forgotten.

This didn’t need to have happened — and it shouldn’t happen to anyone else.
