Cancer APPG

First Registered: 30/07/2015 • Last updated on: 12/01/2026

The APPG seeks to keep cancer at the top of the political agenda and to ensure that policymaking remains firmly patient-centred, bringing together Parliamentarians from across the political spectrum to debate key issues and campaign together to improve cancer services.

Note: All-Party Parliamentary Groups (APPGs) are informal, cross-party groups formed by MPs and Members of the House of Lords who share a common interest in a particular policy area, region or country. APPGs have no official status within Parliament.
