Amber's Legacy — Sunderland
Creating Awarenessfor cervical cancer
Born in Sunderland from one family's devastating loss, we fight to ensure every woman across Tyne and Wear and the North East has access to cervical screening — regardless of age. Amber was denied a smear test at 22. She was told she was too young. Sadly, Amber passed away aged just 25.
Amber’s Legacy…
When people help people, change happens
We were known as Ambers Law for over 6 years and have built up a large following across the UK and in many parts of the world. We made a decision to change the name of the charity to Ambers Legacy after many months of deliberation. We decided to devote our time and effort to the legacy that Amber has created and the lives she has saved and hopefully carries on saving.

Education & Resources
Knowledge Saves Lives
The North East has the highest cancer rate for women of any English region. Cervical cancer is one of the most preventable cancers, but screening uptake across Tyne and Wear varies wildly — from 89% to as low as 35%. Early detection saves lives. Know your body, recognise the signs, and never be afraid to push for a test.
