Claire O’Shea of @clairescampaign.bsky.social sadly passed away on the 12th of May this year.
This month would have been her 43rd birthday, making today’s motion being passed even more poignant. Her voice lives on through this campaign, and through the women who continue to speak out.

Calling for urgent action on gynaecological cancers in Wales and building on Claire's legacy to make sure women are listened to and change is delivered. Every year in Wales, there are over 1,000 cases of gynaecological cancers.
They’re the 4th most common cause of cancer death among women here.

📊 Without good data, we can’t improve care.
We’re calling for robust, routine cancer data — on waiting times, experiences, outcomes, and inequalities — to drive real improvement across Wales. 📈

Patients and the third sector are too often brought in late to decisions.
As a member of the @walescanceralliance.org, we believe patient voices and third sector expertise must be at the heart of designing cancer services from the very start. 🤝

❌ Wales is the only UK nation without a dedicated cancer strategy.
✅ We need a new, long-term cancer strategy that covers prevention, early diagnosis, treatment, living beyond cancer, and end of life.
🗺️ Patients deserve a roadmap for better outcomes, not patchwork plans.

Six months after treatment, her tumour was still there.
