Non-smoker diagnosed with lung cancer at 37 demands 'urgent action'

A non-smoker who was diagnosed with lung cancer at the age of 37 is campaigning for better awareness of the condition in young women.

Jules Fielder, from Hastings, East Sussex, has secured a meeting with Health Secretary Wes Streeting after a social media campaign.

Ms Fielder, now 41, said she was challenging "outdated stereotypes" about the condition, particularly that it only affects older people or people who smoke.

She is demanding "urgent action" about one of the UK's biggest cancer killers.
