Cancer Research UK have been highlighting the importance of screening and an early diagnosis for cancer.

Screening looks for the early signs of cancer in people without symptoms, helping to detect cancers earlier or even prevent them.

Today, we are joining 55 cancer charities as #OneCancerVoice, to call on the UK government to provide funding and reform in the upcoming National Cancer Plan for England so cancer patients are diagnosed and start their treatment quicker, and they get the care and treatment they deserve.

A new analysis by Cancer Research UK revealed that in 2024, 74,000 cancer patients didn’t start their treatment on time.

That’s enough people to fill the O2 arena almost four times over.

#OneCancerVoice is calling on the UK Government to equip the NHS to deal with this, to avoid more and more people waiting too long to start their cancer treatment.

Today, we’re joining 50+ cancer charities, speaking with #OneCancerVoice, to call on the UK Government to fully fund the upcoming National Cancer Plan, to ensure cancer patients get the care they deserve.

Our Founder Rose Woodward has co-signed a letter today sent to the Times newspaper backing the plan

The National Cancer Plan for England is a huge opportunity to improve the lives of cancer patients, but it needs to be supported with the necessary funding.

Last year, 75,000 cancer patients in England didn’t start their treatment on time.
Every cancer patient deserves a quick diagnosis and fast access to the treatment they need.
