A SOUTH Essex MP has supported a campaign to support the work of cancer charities.
John Baron, Tory MP for Basildon and Billericay, made the call at a Westminster event to mark World Cancer Day 2017.
This year’s theme is “unity”, and the event was organised by a coalition of cancer charities, including Cancer Research UK, Breast Cancer Care, Breast Cancer Now, CLIC Sargent, Anthony Nolan, Bowel Cancer UK and Marie Curie.
Mr Baron said: “I very much enjoyed meeting many dedicated volunteers, patients, nurses and researchers at the event.
“I wish them all well with the ‘unity’ campaign, and look forward to keeping in touch over the coming year.”
