Published on Tuesday 7 February 2012 10:24

A LEADING politician has given his support to a national charity battling cancer.

Shailesh Vara, MP for North West Cambridgeshire, has pledged to support Beating Bowel Cancer to save lives from the UK’s second biggest cancer killer.

Mr Vara said: “I attended Beating Bowel Cancer’s annual Be Loud Be Clear parliamentary reception and found out that the number of people in my constituency who are diagnosed with bowel cancer and who die from the disease is more than the national average.”

He added: “The local figures are worse than the national average so it is clear that we must take bowel cancer seriously.”
