Parliamentary update
Rachel’s case has now been raised formally in Parliament through a Written Parliamentary Question (UIN 97432) asking how primary care is supported in identifying hereditary cancer risk in patients without a clear family history.
The Government response outlines existing genomic testing infrastructure but does not set out a clear national system for detecting patients like Rachel earlier. While it places emphasis on individual clinicians maintaining their own knowledge, it does not describe a structured detection pathway to support them, reinforcing the system-level gap this campaign seeks to address.
The exchange is now on the public parliamentary record.

Thank you to everyone who has supported and signed this petition so far — it is only because of that collective support that Rachel’s case has reached this point.
