Party Conference season that is. It’s the time for Ciarán Devan, Macmillan's Chief Executive, and most of the Public Affairs Team to break free from the office for three weeks. We will be travelling around the country to push our campaigning messages with the three main political parties. Top of the list will be our three Vote Cancer Support campaign calls – post treatment care plans for all cancer survivors, better access to drug treatments for people with rarer cancers, and 24/7 access to a community nurse for patients who are terminally ill.
Starting this Monday we will post a daily blog giving you the highlights from the conferences, as well as a summary of the latest news and thinking around issues that will have an impact on people affected by cancer and Macmillan. We will also be tweeting about what goes on at our fringe events which this year will focus on survivorship.
We would like you to be involved as well. Please join in the debate and let us know your thoughts and comments.
