What the petition asks

The Faye Knowles Chapman Foundation was set up in memory of Faye who sadly lost her battle to cervical cancer in 2013.
Our aim is to educate young ladies on the importance of cervical cancer screening and to get them assistance where required.

A section of Faye's Story - wrote by Faye Knowles Chapman.
Nothing could prepare me or my family for this devastating news and the impact that it has had on us all. I am hoping to have an intense course of chemotherapy, estimated April 2012, and possibly more radiotherapy. I have also expressed my interest in any clinical trials or new medications. The aim is now to prolong my life for as long as possible, which at the age of 26 is soul destroying.
