February 4th was World Cancer Day and Radiotherapy for Life were at an event at the House of Commons trying to raise the awareness of the importance of Radiotherapy in the successful treatment of cancer. RT is severely underfunded and understaffed in the UK (what part of the NHS isn’t, come to that?) and many hospitals are operating with Radiotherapy machines past their sell-by date. I emailed my MP and lo and behold to his immense credit he was there to participate. Thank you Ben Lake.

Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
