I lost my brother to cancer.
I was with him when he was told his diagnosis - a moment I will never forget. Throughout, the NHS respected and cared for him.
When he passed away, it hit me like a bus - even though I knew it was coming.
I'm determined that every person diagnosed with cancer gets the best possible chance of beating it.
Our National Cancer Plan is the most ambitious in a generation. It means earlier diagnosis, slashing waiting lists and investing in cutting-edge technology to build an NHS fit for the future.
