The UK desperately needs more cancer nurses. For the Government's 'war on cancer' to succeed, it must urgently address this crisis.
#TheForgottenC
Nurses provide vital support to people living with cancer, but the worsening cancer workforce crisis means there are far too few of them.
We’re crafting with @MacmillanCancer to show decision makers we need more cancer nurses #TheForgottenC 💚
Fantastic to be part of the campaign to get funding for more invaluable Macmillan nurses Rishi Sunak #theforgottenc

With every stitch I thought about what it must be like being a cancer nurse right now. Exhausting. #TheForgottenC
Supporting people with cancer will always be a priority for me, and I'm working with some amazing charities to do this. #TheForgottenC

In September I was delighted to host a #MacmillanCoffeeMorning . I heard how cancer services had been impacted by the pandemic. It is vital that cancer doesn't become #TheForgottenC .
I will continue to do what I can in parliament to help the fight against Cancer.
@MacmillanEast
Brilliant to see Lynda Thomas CBE (she/her) and lovely Ruth on BBC news just now. Powerful to hear how Macmillan Cancer Support has supported Ruth during this exceptionally challenging time. Message to Gov is clear: cancer cannot become #TheForgottenC - we need to see cancer services protected.
Before coronavirus hit, cancer waiting times were at their worst. Since the outbreak, it's even harder for people with cancer to get the care and support they need. Take action with @mac_campaigning here bit.ly/2ZmaZtO #TheForgottenC
⚠️ There is a crisis in cancer care. Without urgent investment, shortages in the cancer care workforce are set to get worse.
The government must act now. Sign the petition here: bit.ly/3AeeSkd

Cancer must not become #TheForgottenC during the #coronavirus pandemic. I know this is an issue some of my constituents are very concerned about. I’m supporting @mac_campaigning and calling on UK Governments to urgently publish recovery plans for cancer services.
Cancer Nurse Specialists do an incredible job supporting people living with cancer. I'm glad to hear Boris Johnson has been discussing the pressures they're facing at #CPC21 .
It's vital the Government invests in the cancer care workforce 👉petition.parliament.uk/petitions/5965…
