Today is World Cancer Day 🌍
Cancer affects many lives, whether directly or through a loved one.
On , we want to highlight that while not all cancers can be prevented, there are important steps we can take to reduce risk and detect cancer early.
💚 Prevention matters
Healthy lifestyle choices such as not smoking, staying active, eating a balanced diet, limiting alcohol, and protecting your skin from the sun could all help lower cancer risk.
🔍 Screening saves lives
Taking part in NHS screening programmes (including breast, cervical and bowel screening) can help spot cancer early. If you receive an invitation — please attend!
🤝 Support is available
If you are living with cancer, supporting someone who is, or have concerns about symptoms, you are not alone. We are here to listen, support, and guide you to the right help and services.
