Michael Fabricant – 2014 Parliamentary Question to the Prime Minister

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Michael Fabricant on 2014-04-28.

To ask the Prime Minister, what representations he has received on the work of Stephen Sutton in fundraising for cancer charities; and if he will make a statement.

Mr David Cameron

I was very moved to read of the outstanding fundraising work carried out by Stephen and his passion to raise money for teenage cancer services to help others like him.

As part of Stephen’s list of 50 things he wants to do, he came to Downing Street to give a speech in July last year. Although I was unable to meet him on that occasion I continue to be awe-struck by his enthusiasm, his determination and achievement.

His fund-raising is not only incredible in itself but is also an inspiration for young people and the wider community.
