7 in 10 people with pancreatic cancer receive no treatment. This is shameful.

I’m joining @PancreaticCanUK in calling for a faster, fairer, funded treatment & care journey for people with pancreatic cancer.

*NEW CAMPAIGN*
Did you know that 7 in 10 people with pancreatic cancer never receive treatment? It’s shocking, and it’s shameful.

With a fast and fair treatment and care journey, and the funding to make it happen, more people will have a chance to survive.

[Pancreatic Cancer UK @PancreaticCanUK]

Sign our petition today and together we'll tell governments – don't write off people with pancreatic cancer: https://t.co/ZUKK9RgwPR #DontWriteMeOff

Oliver Furechi, TREYL Project Manager, expresses that -“@PA_EastAfrica has planted the seed, kept the seed in the nursery and now it is ready for planting, let’s plant the tree”. Brilliant call for systemic change, need for collaboration for #young people in #agribusiness

Right now, we have a golden opportunity to tackle #PancreaticCancer. I’ve asked my MP to tell @Helen_Whately to prioritise the deadliest common cancer in the new #MajorConditionsStrategy. Ask your MP to help too https://t.co/9SpB2NriNl

[Mirianna Budimir @MBudimir]

On #IWD2023, read our blog post to understand more about how gender shows up in #EWEA and what we can do about it - Gender in early warning and early action: why do we still need to talk about it?

Exciting! My poster presentation submission was accepted for the RCOT conference ☺️ The topic is 'Lone working and the professional identity of newly qualified occupational therapists'. This is a subject I feel quite strongly about so hopefully I'll do it justice! #RCOT2023 #OT
