We're supporting @radiotherapy_uk's campaign to increase investment in #Radiotherapy. Investing in research is also crucial to improve radiotherapy treatment for patients. Find out why in the thread below⬇️🧵(1/5) express.co.uk/news/politics/…

In Cumbria and across the country, we have a cancer crisis, with patients waiting months to receive their first treatment. In the House of Commons I asked the Health Minister if she would back our radiotherapy campaign with Daily Express for £1bn investment to improve treatment

APPG-RT Chair Tim Farron MP launches findings from ‘January 2023 - Inquiry into radiotherapy and the cancer crisis’. The report highlights decades of systematic under-funding and under-resourcing of radiotherapy. Full report here bit.ly/APPGRTreport @radiotherapy_uk

This afternoon at Health Questions I challenged the Heath Secretary to ensure new cutting edge radiotherapy equipment is getting to the front line, alongside a fully staffed radiotherapy workforce, in order to cut waiting times between diagnosis and treatment and save lives.

A national tragedy that some cancer patients face 3-4h rounds trips to receive life saving radiotherapy care. Thank you Tim Farron for shedding light on our depleted radiotherapy services. Cancer waiting times will keep rising as long as these severe shortages remain unaddressed
