Petition updateStop unnecessary cancer deaths caused by long treatment waits, and save thousands of livesPlease email your MP and urge them to act on World Cancer Day | #CatchUpWithCancer

As World Cancer Day (4th Feb) fast approaches we need the Government to act to save tens of thousands of lives. Please use this link to email your MP and urge them to attend the World Cancer Day virtual event and join #CatchUpWithCancer social media call to action on 4th February 2021.

We were deeply shocked to see no clear investment in cancer services at the Government's December 2020 Spending Review. We are also concerned that the Government’s existing cancer recovery plan does not appear to include the “super-boost” to cancer services that is so desperately needed to tackle the cancer treatment and diagnostic backlog caused by COVID-19. With a Budget due to take place in March 2021, the Government still can, and should, act to provide the boost we need to ensure both cancer and COVID patients are saved. However, we need more support. By calling on your MP to attend and act now it will hugely help the #CatchUpWithCancer campaign.

We urgently need an emergency response across all available cancer treatments with extra resources and with the same amount of energy and focus as was deployed against the virus itself. 

Kind regards

Craig and Mandy Russell
