Copied from the fundrsiser from the Enhertu group & they need your help.
@METUPUKorg have been campaigning since the decision not to fund was made. Please support, give if you can & share this. We need to change this as this will happen to ither drugs & other patients in the future… 🙏🏼
“Thousands of terminally ill women in England, Wales and Northern Ireland are being denied a life extending drug called ENHERTU to treat their advanced breast cancer.
Despite petitions, protests, campaigns and even government pressure the secondary breast cancer community is being met with constant rejection from NICE.
With Scotland rightly having approved this drug and 25 other countries worldwide we are at a complete loss. Why don’t they value us?
Our only option now is to take legal proceedings to continue the fight for those who need this drug urgently and for the thousands upon thousands who will need it in months and years to come.
Can you help us and join the cause?”

Please can you help and spread the word
Our lovely Billy from DIY SOS had his car stolen a few days ago, with a rather obvious number plate.
Can you RT and see if we can find it for him, as it’s made him awfully sad
Thank you everyone
Metastatic breast cancer has been relabelled as ‘MODERATELY Severe’ meaning life-extending drugs are now too expensive for people who aren’t in Scotland according to @NICEComms
Metastatic breast cancer KILLS every one who has it. It is INCURABLE. How is that only moderately severe?
One day my own life could be cut short be sure NICE has enforced a postcode lottery. Do we all need to move to Scotland to get extra months of life?
@BreastCancerNow
The person on the left has had her £500 winter fuel allowance taken away from her by the person on the right who still has her £3400 MPs heating allowance.
You awful man, making out you are on the side of pensioners to get their votes, then cutting their winter fuel allowance when you gain power
SHAME ON YOU @UKLabour
If pensioners who get 12k per year are considered too well off to receive the winter fuel allowance, shouldn't MP's on 96k per year be considered too rich to receive housing, heating, travel, and meal subsidies?
Only 10 minutes into this select committee video & it’s clear there’s a problem as only 2/39 drugs have been approved under the new @NICEComms #severitymodifier in 2 years & they have stated that the system is “not fit for purpose”@wesstreeting this is the problem.
Please address this urgently. WOMEN are dying & will continue to die unless there is change.
31 WOMEN are dying every day from #metaststicbreastcancer #secondarybreastcancer
We deserve better. We deserve HOPE & drugs that work to be APPROVED. This will happen with other cancers & other diseases - we are being thrown under the bus… our disease isn’t MEDIUM severity… life expectancy is 2-5 Years… #enhertuemergency
