#OneCancerVoice petition hand in

March 2023

On Wednesday 22nd March, we joined over 60 cancer charities supporting the #OneCancerVoice petition hand in at Number 10 Downing Street. Together we are calling on the UK government to address the UK Cancer emergency and improve cancer care.

Thanks to your amazing support this petition gained over 70,000 signatures in just one month! We now need the government to listen to our concerns and take action.

It was great to be united with brilliant cancer charities to get our voices heard and stand up for those affected by cancer!
