Secretary state of health Matthew Hancock MP Give more funding for brain tumour research.

The Issue

Brain tumours are on the increase, and in the last 30/40 years there has been no breakthrough in treatment to prolong life. The out look of a GBM is grim. People under 40 die of a brain tumour,more than any other cancer. Approx every £100.00 spent on all cancer research, brain tumour research only gets £1.25p.

I started this petition in 2012. Its now 2018 nothing has changed or advanced in any way, this is appalling,  and shameful.
