Government Recognises That TNBC Needs A Specific Approach!

In response to a parliamentary question from Paul Davies MP for Colne Valley,  Andrew Gwynne, Minister for Public Health and Prevention, stated the following in Parliament last week:

“The Government recognises that a cancer specific approach is needed to meet the challenges in cancer care and to improve outcomes for people living with different types of cancers, subtypes of cancer and triple negative breast cancer”.

Robin Woolcock, Chairman of the UK Charity for TNBC stated that ‘this is the first time that TNBC has been recognised in this way and is particularly timely as the Government prepares its new Plan for Cancer. Our thanks go to MSD, who through our joint programme ‘I Count’ has been working hard to gain this awareness of TNBC amongst key decision makers’.
