Prioritise Cancer Patients NOW, stop delaying Appointments, Surgery & Treatments

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

As we are all aware COVID-19 has changed and devastated so many Lives already! Currently there are Cancer Patients that are being neglected during this time, and something has to change NOW! Appointments are being cancelled, and Treatment/Surgery postponed across the UK! We need to save MORE Lives!
I would like for the Government to find a way to continue to help support the NHS, and make sure that ALL Cancer Patients are given the care and Treatment that they need, Cancer Patients too are a Priority, too many people are left with no answers, and time is not on everyone’s side. As we know 1 in 2 of us will get Cancer, and more needs to be done to make sure that those living with it, are not neglected! We need the Government to take action on this serious matter!
