Good morning from @ALLIANCEScot annual conference. It’s great to join with colleagues to discuss how #OurVoicesMatter in ensuring the people we support have the services they need, when and where they need them

Unfortunately, this isn’t news. How do we change this to improve outcomes for so many men?

This week I was delighted to host a parliamentary reception with @LessSurvivable to mark Less Survivable Cancers week.

Getting earlier diagnosis and treatment will improve survival rates and priority needs to be given to this as part of the Cancer Strategy.

[Jill Clark @1JillClark]

Less Survivable Cancers Awareness Week starts today

[Heartburn Cancer UK @HeartburnCancer]

On this day, we remember Humphrey Bogart, one of Hollywood’s greatest icons, known for classics like Casablanca who sadly passed away from oesophageal cancer in 1957 aged 58.

For more information on symptoms see our website.

[Action-vs-Heartburn @ActionHeartburn]

Gastroenterologists are crucial for #earlydiagnosis #cytosponge

[Less Survivable Cancers Taskforce @LessSurvivable]

As part of #LessSurvivableCancersAwarenessWeek, we're highlighting the importance of symptom awareness. If you notice anything unusual for you, don’t hesitate—see your GP.

[Pancreatic Cancer UK @PancreaticCanUK]

It's the first day of Less Survivable Cancers Awareness Week and as one of the less survivable cancers we want to amplify the urgent need for more research into early detection methods and better treatment for those affected by pancreatic cancer.

The most dangerous cancers often have vague symptoms, making awareness vital.
