We’re back with another episode of our subseries, Longer, better lives! This series unpacks our recently published manifesto, Longer, Better Lives: A Manifesto for Cancer Research and Care.

You might recognise our next guest, as she was part of our ‘Together We Are Beating Cancer’ campaign during September, featuring on a TV advert as well as billboards and posters on display across the UK.

Dr Mei-Ling Lancashire is a GP who was diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer 2 years ago. In this episode, Sophie sits with Mei-Ling to talk about her cancer experience and why she believes politicians need to start prioritising cancer.

To join us in telling party leaders to back our calls for longer, better lives, you can sign our open letter.
