A #GeneralElection has been announced 🚨
The Tobacco and Vapes Bill is one of the most significant public health interventions in living memory. We're calling on all parties to ensure this world-leading Bill is passed through before this Parliament ends.
Smoking causes around 150 cases of cancer every day and places huge pressure on @NHSuk.
Saving lives must transcend politics, and nothing would have a bigger impact on reducing the number of preventable deaths than ending smoking.

A smoke free world for our children. #Smokefreegeneration 👇🏻
Our analysis shows that up to 820,000 fewer cigarettes could be smoked each day in Scotland by 2040 if the proposed legislation to raise the age of sale of tobacco is successfully implemented.

Great to see #KingCharles supporting the message of just how important the early diagnosis of #cancer is. Perhaps he can start an intelligent discussion on why the #UK lags behind most comparable countries for cancer provision and outcomes?
We’re delighted to share that His Majesty King Charles III will be our new Patron.
This is an exciting time for us and for cancer research. We’re looking forward to the opportunities His Majesty’s Patronage will bring, and know this support will help progress our mission to ensure more people live longer, better lives, free from the fear of cancer.
Find out more about this announcement, and what it means for our work.

Through the Bowelbabe Fund for Cancer Research UK, we’re continuing the amazing legacy of Dame Deborah James and I’m hugely grateful that her family have got behind our #CancerManifesto for #LongerBetterLives.
This #BowelCancerAwarenessMonth they’ve written to political party leaders to highlight our calls for a cancer strategy for England, with early diagnosis at its heart.

Fantastic to see the UK’s CMOs backing the Tobacco and Vapes Bill, which, if passed and properly implemented, would help protect the health of future generations to come.
Smoking is the leading cause of cancer; and is also the leading cause of preventable death in the UK. It's great to see the Scottish CMO voicing support for this legislation in Scotland. 🏴
Today, MPs vote on new laws to protect our future generations across the UK from the harmful effects of smoking and to tackle youth vaping.

💙Rebellious hope is finding light in the darkness. It's choosing to remain hopeful, even when it might seem like there's nothing to be hopeful for. It's defying expectations. It's choosing to change the narrative. It's being the force to make the change. 💙
Thank you Dame Deborah James whose beautifully chosen words are now part of a special range @CRUKShops to fund life-saving research. Available at our Paisley superstore & across the UK as well as online: bit.ly/3Q3yly3

It's #TesticularCancerAwarenessMonth. Here are the most common symptoms 👇
These symptoms can be caused by other conditions, not just cancer. If you notice something unusual for you, or changes that haven't gone away, talk to your doctor.
