"Because Of Amy is about education and knowledge"
Amy Heaver died 15 months after being diagnosed with an aggressive bone cancer. Her parents, Natasha and Phil, are now campaigning for more consistent, mandatory and regulatory training specifically focused on recognising red-flag cancer symptoms, particularly in children and young people. They spoke to Gilly Hope about their daughter and their hopes for the petition Because Of Amy.
