Prime Minister supports Wear A Hat Day
Posted on 24th March 2012 by Sue in Lobbying
We are incredibly proud to have the support of the Prime Minister, David Cameron who said: “Brain cancer is a dreadful disease and losing someone you love to such an aggressive illness is not only traumatic but also extremely distressing for the family and friends left behind. This Government is committed to improving cancer survival which is why we are investing an additional £450million to help achieve earlier diagnosis of cancer through direct GP access to diagnostic tests such as MRI scans which can help diagnose brain cancer earlier.
The important work of the Brain Tumour Research charity helps raise awareness into the causes and treatments and I am delighted to support their annual fundraising campaign ‘Wear a Hat Day’ on the 30th March.”
