Early detection can help save lives!

16/02/2026

Check it, don’t chance it — act now on cancer.

If a symptom sticks around, get it checked. Early diagnosis saves lives.

Look out for:

✔️ a new lump or bump
✔️ pain that won’t go
✔️ blood in your poo or wee
✔️ unexplained weight loss

Only 56% of cancers in Lancashire and South Cumbria are found at stages 1–2 (59% nationally). Our ambition is 78% by 2032. We’ll get there together if people seek help sooner.
You’re not wasting anyone’s time. Your GP will want to see you.

Common symptoms of breast cancer.
Early detection of breast cancer can help save lives. ❤

Breast screening aims to find breast cancer at an early stage, often before there are any symptoms. Early detection may often mean simpler and more successful treatment.

A visit to a breast screening unit usually takes less than 30 minutes and the mammogram only takes a few minutes.
