Biography

Mr Campbell has engaged on health and social care issues primarily through debate speeches, with a particular focus on palliative care funding and rare disease awareness. He has raised concerns about NHS waiting lists being compounded by preventable conditions, prostate cancer screening, and eating disorder support across devolved regions, whilst highlighting the need for adequate government funding for hospices rather than reliance on community fundraising. He has also advocated for improved awareness among health professionals regarding rare autoimmune rheumatic diseases and shared a constituent case involving terminal illness and pension payment difficulties.

  • I congratulate the hon. Lady on securing the debate. She is outlining very clearly the importance of the issue. It is vital that people are aware of it.
