Pancreatic cancer is a cancer emergency that cannot be ignored. Right now, it’s diagnosed too late and more than half of people die within three months of diagnosis.
That’s why we’re campaigning for change.
We campaign for early diagnosis, better treatment and more research breakthroughs. We do this by influencing governments and the NHS across all four UK nations – in partnership with people affected by pancreatic cancer and health professionals.
Together with our incredible supporters, we’ve successfully campaigned to
- keep treatment going during the pandemic
- secure new NHS guidelines and investment to diagnose and treat pancreatic cancer
- get commitments from the NHS bodies, governments and political parties in the UK to make pancreatic cancer a priority.
Now, we must we turn all this momentum into impact – and we’d love you to join us.
Join our campaigns community to stand with us to demand better for people with pancreatic cancer.
