The energy, the ideas, and the shared commitment to reducing inequalities were inspiring. Collaboration like this is how we move from conversation to real change, ensuring every community has the knowledge and support they need for earlier detection, better outcomes, and healthier futures.

Another Sneak Peek – What You’ll Hear

🎙️ How are campaigns like It’s Not a Game and Put Yourself First changing the way we think about cancer?

In Episode 33, Steve and Femi explore how cultural stigma, lack of awareness, and missed diagnoses are still impacting outcomes. From hearing about new research in prostate cancer to the stark reminder that cancer doesn’t discriminate by age or gender, this episode shines a spotlight on real issues and real people making a difference. Whether it’s through Movember moustaches or award-winning outreach work, every effort counts.
