Very poorly put together. Maybe a play on words but it is still very upsetting and offensive to anyone affected by cancer . Needs to be removed from TV asap

My 4 year old son has cancer. I understand your message but find the language of the tag line of your campaign to be highly offensive and inconsiderate.

A little bit of common sense would go a long way

Insensitive and deeply upsetting for children, adults and families who have gone through treatment, are currently going through treatment and people yet to be devastated by this diagnosis. Utterly shocked that this campaign was even brought to the table, yet alone, agreed upon and rolled out.

Terrible advert. I have a 6 year son who got cancer at 3 years young. He under no circumstances wanted "to get cancer ".

Very upsetting adv for going through or has been effected by cancer, money spent on advertising this would have been better spent on research, after spending 6years watching my daughter going through this terrible sickness ( we relapsed twice) I still don't get it .

My son had cancer at 14 months but so so very grateful he came through it. He will be 8 in September this year. Not a nice advertisement for him or his little sister Alana. I hope that none of us never see or get cancer again!!!! Xx
