Join our first Campaigns Community event
29th September 2021, 18.00 - 19.30 via Zoom
Thank you for being part of a growing movement of people campaigning for change for people with pancreatic cancer.
Together we’ve campaigned to keep treatment going during the pandemic, for faster diagnosis and access to essential treatment. Now, we’re ready to embark on our most ambitious plan yet to transform the future of diagnosis and treatment for people with pancreatic cancer.
