PANCREATIC CANCER AWARENESS MONTH

That this House notes that November is Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month across the UK and that pancreatic cancer remains the deadliest and the quickest killing cancer among common cancers; further notes that national data show that 75 per cent of people diagnosed will die within a year of diagnosis and only 30 per cent of people receive any active treatment; welcomes Pancreatic Cancer UK's Demand Faster Treatment campaign to treat people within 20 days of diagnosis by 2024; and urges the Government to take action to get more people with pancreatic cancer into treatment faster.
