Last Saturday I had the absolute pleasure & honour of my first event as a mentour with the @BrainTumourOrg . Speaking & helping their young adults navigate their own journey with a diagnosis of a brain tumour. I love my life and what I get to do

Practical and impactful actions to drive earlier diagnosis of brain tumours discussed with @HumzaYousaf today. So encouraging to hear a minister recognise the urgency with which we need to address this critical problem within covid recovery. @BrainTumourOrg @LessSurvivable

I’ve found the coverage of the inquest into Alexander Tekle’s suicide too painful to comment on.

Until now.

(This will be a LONG one.)

Today is #LessSurvivableCancersAwarenessDay

Less survivable cancers are difficult to diagnose and it's important we raise awareness of them.

If you have worrying symptoms, see your GP, and encourage others to do the same.

"A brain tumour diagnosis brings almost constant insecurity towards those diagnosed (or a loved one's) future, and too often denies people of just that." Thank you @madeIainee for sharing your reflections on the first #LessSurvivableCancersAwarenessDay https://t.co/r50jOO4nZr

[Alice Russell @AliceRussell06]

On the inaugural #LessSurvivableCancersAwarenessDay one of @BrainTumourOrg’s Young Ambassadors Rhudi Braume-Kennedy shares why awareness of Leas Survivable Cancer and their symptoms is so vitally important. https://t.co/uDcX7UdxWk

[Less Survivable Cancers Taskforce @LessSurvivable]

"A quarter of cancers in the UK have an average five-year survival rate of only 16% and are often diagnosed late in emergency departments..."

We need to #CloseTheDeadlyCancerGap. Thank you to Cabinet Secretary @HumzaYousaf for your support with our first ever #LessSurvivableCancersAwarenessDay. Great to see @scotgovhealth leading the way with specific focus on LSCs in their cancer action plan.

[Less Survivable Cancers Taskforce @LessSurvivable]

The Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Care, @HumzaYousaf, is raising awareness for #LessSurvivableCancersAwarenessDay.

Only 16% of people survive for 5 years after being diagnosed with less survivable cancers.

Covid has ‘made outlook worse’ for people with least survivable cancers https://t.co/9TusbA1mle

[Less Survivable Cancers Taskforce @LessSurvivable]

It’s #LessSurvivableCancersAwarenessDay!

People diagnosed with less survivable cancers have a shockingly low life expectancy.

Only 16% of people survive for 5 years after being diagnosed with these cancers.

[Less Survivable Cancers Taskforce @LessSurvivable]

Some cancers have seen remarkable progress in survivability but others are as deadly as they were 40 years ago.

That’s why we’re supporting the first ever #LessSurvivableCancersAwarenessDay on 11 January 2022.

@r_ketola @BrainTumourOrg Oh this brought me so much joy to see! Thanks for sharing, Rachel. Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. 🎄✨

Too many families have lost loved ones to #Glioblastoma this year & Christmas can be tough for many reasons. I’m not naïve enough to think this is the answer, but it may offer a few suggestions to help someone get through December in one piece. #Grief @BrainTumourOrg
