Director of Policy and co-founder @themenai was a guest on the @mrjamesob show on @LBC this time last year. The message has never changed: parents are waiting too long for support.
Hugh survived 10 months after diagnosis, which on current wait times would have meant we received no entitlement or benefit while he was alive.
That is not good enough. #HUGHSLAW
@AshleyDalton_MP@DHSCgovuk Lovely to meet you on Monday and thank you so much for championing families like mine.
We are so grateful to be seeing steps in the right direction.
Looking forward to working with you again.
"Listening is always the key" We're proud to campaign alongside children, young people and their families, like @TimothyPSadler to call for a better system of support.
Tim has been sharing how the cost of travelling to treatment impacts families, and how a travel fund, announced today as part of the National Cancer Plan, will help👇
Tim's son Michael was diagnosed with a rare type of cancer aged two.
He shares how worrying about money made an already difficult time even harder.
Through the National Cancer Plan, we'll cover travel costs for children with cancer.

I won slippers watching @JustinHawkins in Cheltenham. Now there’s a sentence I didn’t have on my bingo card this evening.
Great fun.
Thank you!

Really grateful for the opportunity to share Laura’s story & discuss the #RareCancersBill with @2ndtimeMama on @BBCBreakfast today
The bill has now passed its second reading in the House of Lords - let’s hope it won’t be long before it becomes law.
Thank you @DrScottArthurMP
Huge thank you to my ‘brother from another mother’ Lee @ICT_MrP for spreading the word about our quest to improve support (including in education) for children and young people with cancer.

£5000! That’s the cost of waiting…. This is not right that young cancer patients are waiting 7 months for disability benefits they need. Costs start immediately so families should be able to apply from diagnosis.
