Today we're launching #StillMe, a campaign that shines a light on how the visible impacts of cancer can affect young people, inside and out. It’s natural to worry about our body image sometimes – especially when we’re young. But now add in a cancer diagnosis and treatment. (1/6)
Do you know the 5 most common signs of cancer in young people ❓
- Lumps and swellings
- Unexplained tiredness
- Mole changes
- Persistent pain
- Unexplained weight change
These are just some of the most common signs of cancer in young people aged 13 – 24.
Volunteering for @TeenageCancer over the festive period to raise awareness and fundraise in @dobbies - please visit your local garden centre or text DOBBIES to 70470 to donate £10 🙏
November is Head and Neck Cancer Awareness Month, a time to shine a light on this often overlooked health issue. These cancers affect vital areas like the throat, mouth, and voice box. Early detection is crucial for successful treatment. Let's spread awareness, encourage regular screenings, and support those affected. Knowledge is power. 💙🎗️ #HeadAndNeckCancerAwareness #EarlyDetectionSavesLives
Another informative session this time from Emma Riley regarding looking, listening and observing for mouth cancer in older persons - finished with a poignant poem… #HNCCONF2023
An emotional video from a caregiver humbling medical experts, patients & other carers during the first session at the Swallows Head & Neck Cancer conference - thanks Chris Curtis & all the presenters for an amazing start, now for some ‘laughter is the best medicine’ #HNCCONF2023
Arrived at my first Swallows Head & Neck Cancer conference in Torquay for two days of informative talks and discussions with medical experts, famous people who’ve been affected and to meet, support and help others on their journey ❤️ #HNCCONF2023
With Head and Neck cancer being the 4th most common cancer in men, and 7th overall in UK it is important that we are aware of the #SignsAndSymptoms and how to #SelfCheck.
On my @HosRadioIpswich show tonight I’ll be finding out about the @swallowsgroup, a charity supporting those with head and neck cancer. Two of its Suffolk organisers - Mark Safier & Donny Brown - and @IpswichHosp cancer nurse @CherylYildiz join me at 8-20pm. @Team_ESNEFT
