I’d like to point out that I don’t just use Twitter to complain about poor customer service, publish sweary rants about sanitary products or whine to the council about digital forms I also tag my friends in comical posts about cheese from time to time

Google August 2025 spam update is rolling out - here is what we know seroundtable.com/google-augu…

🤝 Local councils, charities & research orgs in England can now apply for funding to help more people get online in their communities. With 1.6 million people in the UK living offline, this funding will transform lives and drive economic growth.

NICE are updating their clinical guideline on advanced (metastatic or secondary) breast cancer. This is long overdue, the current guideline (CG81) was published in 2009 and last updated in 2017. We have been asked by NICE circulate a call for people with lived experience of metastatic breast cancer to join the guideline update committee. The deadline for applications is 28 February 2025. If you are interested in applying, further details can be found at: buff.ly/4jShPhv

On behalf of all the Trustees, volunteers and supporters of METUPUK, we would like to offer our heartfelt congratulations to our Founder, Jo Taylor, for being awarded the British Empire Medal in The King's New Year Honours List 2025. A much deserved recognition for years of work in improving outcomes and quality of life for patients with breast cancer. Jo was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2007 at the age of 38, months after giving birth to her second child. After diagnosis, Jo was shocked by the lack of information on reconstructive surgical options for patients with breast cancer. To address this gap, she created the website After Breast Cancer Diagnosis (ABCD). Jo later added information on diet and exercise and set up residential Exercise Retreats for patients with a diagnosis of primary or metastatic (secondary) breast cancer. When Jo was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) in 2014 she once again became aware of lack of information being provided to patients. Although 30% of patients develop MBC, sometimes years after primary breast cancer, women were not being informed about what to look out for. Jo designed a Red Flag Infographic aimed at patients with a history of primary breast cancer to show the signs and symptoms of MBC. These Infographics are now signposted throughout the NHS. In 2016, Jo founded METUPUK after connecting with patient advocates in the USA. At first it was a loose coalition of likeminded patients campaigning for improvements in outcomes. In 2021 METUPUK became a registered charity, the only UK charity solely dedicated to patient advocacy for MBC. The four main areas of focus are increasing awareness of the signs and symptoms of metastatic breast cancer, increasing access to innovative treatments, improving information and access to clinical trials and improvements in data collection. We are very lucky to have Jo as our Founder and Chair of Trustees. Thank you for all your hard work.

That's great @Michelle_CRUK BUT what about all us living with metastatic cancer? We are not even counted (no data on the living only the dead...) and great that these vaccines are here to reduce the risk of developing these types of cancer but there are over 60,000 living with #metastaticbreastcancer alone. Our survival rate really hasn't improved that much better than 20 years ago. We need more research to help those with metastatic disease live longer, better survival and outcomes and better QOL... #dyingforacure The ‘year of cancer vaccines’ confirms we are living in a golden age of cancer research news.cancerresearchuk.org/20…
