It was a pleasure to welcome Chancellor @RachelReevesMP to the Leeds Lung Health Check this week.
The Chancellor saw first-hand the importance of early diagnosis and the benefits of making screening accessible within the community.

We have a regular visitor to our unit. He had a screen detected lung cancer several years ago. He had curative radiotherapy and brings us chocolate everytime he sees us. "This unit saved my life"
A huge thank you to our funders 💙 @yorkshirecancer

Fantastic to see the first results paper from our @yorkshirecancer funded @YESSstudy published today. Uptake of our stop smoking support within lung cancer screening was high. Protected funding to integrate services is vital erj.ersjournals.com/content/…

Liz, from Leeds, recently visited Parliament to share her experience of quitting smoking through @YESSstudy.
Liz is keen to help young people understand the risks of smoking, and is urging the government to push ahead with its smokefree legislation.
