This year I marked World Cancer Day at a special Cancer Research UK event at Westminster focussed on improving cancer survival in the UK.
I had valuable conversations with Cancer Research UK staff, researchers and campaigners to discuss how to speed up progress in preventing, diagnosing and treating the disease.
Developed with insights from cancer patients and experts from across health, life sciences, government and academic sectors, the charity has recently published an ambitious cancer plan: Longer, better lives: a manifesto for cancer research and care.
