MS Joins Supporters at Tenovus Cancer Care Summer Tea Party in the Senedd

Cancer patients and their families were at the Senedd this week to discuss the top five priorities which matter most to them and helped to launch a key manifesto by Tenovus Cancer Care.

North Wales MS Mark Isherwood joined fellow MSs and supporters from across Wales on Wednesday 25 June to hear more from patients and their clinicians on what they want from cancer services. 

The event, including a panel discussion, was held at the Senedd and brought together members of the All-Wales Cancer Community, a unique initiative launched by Tenovus Cancer Care to unite people from across the nation who have been affected by cancer — either personally or through a loved one. 

Around 200 individuals from every corner of Wales are now part of the community, contributing their valuable insight and experiences to help inform policy decisions, service development, and research. The occasion was part of Tenovus Cancer Care’s annual Summer Tea Party. 

Guests at the Senedd event were welcomed with a heartfelt performance by the Tenovus ‘Sing with Us’ Choir, from Swansea, made up entirely of individuals who have been affected by cancer. Their powerful voices set a moving tone for the gathering, which also featured personal stories from members of the All-Wales Cancer Community.

Speaking afterwards, Mr Isherwood said: 

"It was a privilege to join Tenovus Cancer Care and hear directly from those whose lives have been impacted by cancer. Their experiences are vital in shaping better services and support across Wales. 

“A great number of my constituents have been, and will be, affected by cancer and to know there is a community of other people who can come together to support and influence the policy, research, and service development landscape in Wales is really important.

“I commend the work of Tenovus Cancer Care and the strength of the All-Wales Cancer Community, and would encourage anyone who wishes to know more or to get involved, to contact Tenvous Cancer Care for more information or to sign up via their website.”

Tenovus Cancer Care continues to advocate for a better future for people affected by cancer in Wales, using the voices of the community to drive change where it matters most.
