If you don't know what we're talking about, you need to book your next eye test.

We’re calling on the UK Government and the devolved administrations in Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland to urgently review sarcoma services and act on our recommendations.

Our findings show that while many patients speak positively about the treatment they receive at specialist centres, too many face unacceptable delays in diagnosis, unequal access to specialist care, and a lack of research investment.
A woman with blonde hair in a grey jumper sits thoughtfully by a train window, looking outside. The image highlights healthcare accessibility challenges with text stating "Patients in rural areas and lower-income families face the greatest challenges" and "Specialist centres out of reach." The Sarcoma UK "Unique Among Cancers: Sarcoma Review Needed" campaign branding appears in the bottom right corner. A young woman in a white top lies on white bedding, gazing upward with a contemplative expression. The image addresses psychological support gaps with text stating "Many patients and families are left without the psychological help they need" and "Mental health support is lacking." A researcher in safety goggles and blue gloves carefully handles a pipette with purple liquid in a laboratory setting. The image emphasises research funding needs with text stating "Few new treatments are on the horizon. Investment is needed now" and "Sarcoma research funding lags behind." A teal background with medical imagery shows the campaign's call to action, stating "We're calling on the UK Government and the devolved administrations in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland to urgently review sarcoma services and implement the report's recommendations. Patients and families can't wait any longer."

🇬🇧 Under international law, the UK must:
• Prevent genocide
• Reject Israel’s illegal blockade of Gaza
• Defend its flagged ship from unlawful attacks

Support us by taking action!
Contact the Foreign Office & your MP. Demand protection for ‘Madleen’ & accountability for any aggression. ..3/
