A one-minute video message from the Russell family

With the General Election fast approaching, help us make a stand for cancer patients and support our work at #CatchUpWithCancer. 

A donation of any size is appreciated in supporting the longest and loudest campaign on treatment delays 

Vote for fair and timely cancer treatment for all by helping us continue to speak up for the many thousands of patients still waiting too long.  

Right now we are calling for all major parties to commit to catching up with cancer and helping the NHS hit the 62-day treatment target for the first time since 2015.  

It is this target that really matters for cancer patients, ensuring diagnosis is swift and treatment is quick to begin. Research shows that for many cancers, every four-week delay can increase the risk of death. 

And with growing cancer rates in the UK, we cannot afford to ignore these delays a moment longer.  

Cancer loves time. Together we can stop the clock and #CatchUpWithCancer.  

Thank you for supporting us
