Why Being Counted Matters. One year on from the launch of our groundbreaking research, patient advocate @annmcbrien_ reflects on the journey that helped shine a light on secondary breast cancer and turn data into a catalyst for change. Learn more: cancerfocusni.org/about-us/p…
Secondary breast cancer advocate Ann McBrien alongside her quote that reads “In today’s world we count everything, from money to calories to the steps we take every day. So, it was hard to believe that people like me simply weren’t counted.” “If you’re not counted, you’re not recognised. And if you’re not recognised, services, support and research aren’t properly resourced.”

Westminster loves a good speech, but where's the funding? We're losing our best cancer researchers to the UAE while politicians celebrate cross-border rhetoric.

Huge thanks to @SorchaEastwood for championing this in the House of Commons. Cancer really doesn't care about borders. Our healthcare shouldn't either. Brilliant to see the @QUBCancerProf and @AlCRIproject getting recognition they deserve. #cancerhasnoborders @UCANIRELAND 💪

🙌 Minister commits to supporting all efforts to tackle cancer 🙌 Cancer doesn't stop at borders and neither should our efforts to tackle it!! I was delighted to hear positive support today for my efforts to encourage the fight against cancer to be cross-border and between islands. The work of the All-Island Cancer Research Institute @QUBCancerProf is the template and their work needs to be praised and supported! Everyone deserves the best treatment and supports as they go through cancer. I won't stop until we get there 🙏💪

England’s new National Cancer Plan talks big on AI and genomics but says little on staff, scanners and radiotherapy. In this new video, @DrAmarahmed talks to @prof_price , @QUBCancerProf & @Check4Cancer with @RadiotherapyUK @RTherapy4Life on whether we can #CatchUpWithCancer. 1 in 2 of us will get cancer. Targets have been missed for years, and many patients aren’t getting treatment on time. 📺 Watch, RT & consider emailing your MP about cancer waits, radiotherapy access and proper funding for the plan. #Cancer #CancerPlan #NHSCancer #Radiotherapy #CancerCrisis #Oncology #NHS #HealthPolicy #EarlyDiagnosis #PrimaryCare @wesstreeting, @DrSteveTaylor, @medicaccountant, @drfariahmad, @StAnnsHospice @TheChristieNHS @GM_Cancer @CR_UK @macmillancancer @mariecurieuk @BreastCancerNow @ProstateUK @bowelcanceruk @PancreaticCanUK @Roy_Castle_Lung @TeenageCancer @RCRadiologists @RCPhysicians @rcgp @RCSnews @ACPUK @NHSConfed @NHSProviders @NHSEngland @DHSCgovuk @TheKingsFund @HealthFdn @NuffieldTrust @APPGC @APPGRT @DrSteveTaylor @Parody_RCGP youtu.be/h-AxzVJSNq0
