Become a campaigner

Campaigning is all about influencing those who have the power to change things to make decisions that improve the lives of women with ovarian cancer. 

Our influential campaigns, with the help of thousands of our campaigners, achieve real change in the policies of UK governments so they can make a lasting impact on the lives of women with ovarian cancer, and those yet to be diagnosed.

Where we work

Target Ovarian Cancer works across the UK to support everyone affected by ovarian cancer. As health and social care are devolved, we work with governments and politicians in Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and Westminster.

England

We engage with MPs in Westminster to influence policy, raise awareness, and keep ovarian cancer high on the UK agenda.

Scotland

We work with MSPs in the Scottish Parliament to drive change, improve services, and champion those affected by ovarian cancer.

Northern Ireland

We collaborate with MLAs in the Assembly to influence decisions, improve care, and keep ovarian cancer at the forefront of action.

Wales

We engage with MSs in the Senedd to shape policy, secure better outcomes, and ensure ovarian cancer remains a priority.

How do you want to demand change?

When I was going through chemo in 2023, I remember thinking Why me - how did I end up here? Fast forward to 2026 and I find myself asking the same questions - but this time, I’m on the steps of Downing Street, about to meet the Prime Minister and the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care.

Of course - I wish I’d never been diagnosed with cancer.  But through that experience, and through campaigning with Target Ovarian Cancer, I’ve found a voice I didn’t ever know I had.
