As part of Macmillan’s policy team I am working to make sure the NHS provide improvements in cancer care. This has its difficulties as they amount of money available to spend on cancer is not going up as much as we would like. Although we are fighting this we have to work with the reality, so we want to give some suggestions to the government of why giving good care saves them money. Have any of you got examples of how, by getting the support or information you needed, this actually saved the NHS money? If so we would love to hear about it so we can use it in our discussions with the NHS and government.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
