Henny Braund, Chief Executive of Anthony Nolan says:
‘It will have been very disappointing to the patients and families Anthony Nolan supports to hear that the Government has not committed to the additional investment needed to clear the cancer backlog.
‘People with blood cancer and blood disorders have been heavily impacted by the pandemic and everyone who needs treatment and support must be able to access it without delay. This budget does not address the pressure currently facing cancer services across the UK.
