Eligible patients registered with Pelham Medical, Quayside, Littlefield, Woodfield and Open Door GP surgeries are now being invited for Lung Health Checks.
If you receive an invite, it is important to book your Lung Health Check appointment, even if you feel fine.
You can get involved with the monthly @cancer5kYourWay parkrun events happening this Saturday.
Jog, run, walk or volunteer at one of the events across the region.
Join the community that is inspiring people who are impacted by cancer to live an active and fulfilling lifestyle.
Yesterday we proudly delivered the very first 'Train the Trainer' session to staff at @EMASNHSTrust.
The Trust have expanded on their initial initiative of raising awareness about cancer and screening and will now be able to deliver their own #CancerChampions sessions.
Our next speaker is Dr Dan Cottingham, @CR_UK GP Lead @HNYCancer.
Dan will be highlighting the work that has taken place to implement faecal immunochemical testing (FIT) in primary care.

Dr Tami Byass, a GP in Humber and North Yorkshire, explains how our #CancerChampions programme is helping to equip people with the knowledge needed to raise awareness, and encourage early diagnosis of cancer, within local communities.

Our final presentation of the day was from Lucy Turner, Managing Director @HNYCancer, who thanked everyone for coming.
Lucy also noted the take home message, inspired by @lucygoss, is to remember your why and continue the great work that is taking place.

It’s been fantastic to see the Lung Health Check audit data at the @HNYCancer annual conference. We now have the hard evidence to share, what we hoped, that Lung cancer screening will improve earlier diagnosis and survival. Amazing to be part of this ground breaking work 🤩
Excited be attending my first annual conference as an @HNYCancer team member. Very proud to be sharing our successes with our stakeholders and looking forward to the year ahead working together on our challenges!
Dr Stuart Baugh, Programme Director for NHS Targeted Lung Health Checks in Humber and North Yorkshire, explains how the service, which is helping to diagnose cancer early, is being rolled out across our region in phases.
