Bladder cancer… have you heard about it? If you see blood in your pee even once, contact your GP. It may not be cancer but early diagnosis saves lives 👉 bit.ly/3u4QsZO @Actionbladderca #BladderCancerAwarenessMonth #BloodInYourPeeSeeYourGP

Our Programme Manager, Susan Crabb, is showcasing the “Look Like Us” poster at the Greater Manchester Cancer Conference 2026. The campaign highlights an important message: while cancer does not discriminate, access to screening is not always equal. Through culturally tailored and community-led approaches, “Look Like Us” aims to make cancer screening awareness more inclusive, relatable, and trusted by diverse communities. We were thrilled to win the poster prize at a previous conference… could this be another winning year?

Bladder cancer is often diagnosed late, so knowing the signs really matters. Blood in your pee is the most common symptom. If you see red — or even pink or rusty brown — visit your GP. 👉 bit.ly/3u4QsZO #BladderCancerAwarenessMonth @Actionbladderca
