Want the government to tackle cancer? Time to make it happen.

Become a Cancer Campaigns Ambassador and play a critical role in our mission to beat cancer sooner. They save lives by persuading politicians to support cancer research, prevention, early diagnosis and access to treatments.

  • Introducing plain tobacco packing
  • Laws to protect young people from sunbeds

  • Writing to and meeting your MP and other political representatives.
