Jeremy Hunt's brother Charlie has died of cancer aged 53
Richard Davidson, chief executive of cancer charity Sarcoma UK, described Charlie as a "lovely man and a tireless fundraiser" after his death."Since being diagnosed with sarcoma cancer three years ago, he has done so much to shine a light on the urgent need for early diagnosis and to educate the public about the signs and symptoms of this less common, but devastating form of cancer.
"He will be greatly missed, and we are thinking of his loved ones, including his wife Thandi, and his brother, Jeremy, during this difficult time."His parents both died of cancer - Royal Navy admiral Sir Nicholas Hunt, who died in 2013 at 82, and Lady Meriel Hunt, who died last year, aged 84. Mr Hunt told the Daily Mail he was "blessed" with his cancer "caught relatively early" after he discovered the mole.He said:
He continued: "It's about half the cost for the NHS if you pick up cancer at stage one or two rather than three and four so that's why diagnostic centres are very important.
