April is #BowelCancerAwarenessMonth. Every 15 minutes someone in the UK is diagnosed with Bowel cancer. That is ~ 43,000 people/year. Bowel cancer is the 2nd biggest cancer killer in the UK. More info on how you can support the Bowel Cancer Community @bowelcanceruk

February 28 is recognized as the World Rare Disease Day. Today we are raising awareness for over 300 million people worldwide living with a rare disease, their families and carers. This includes the 1 in 5 people (20%) with cancer in the UK who have a rare cancer. #RareCancerCare

Some seasons we find ourselves with a little bit more than the last, a little bit more than what others have and that is a good reason to share whatever you can with ACT, as we work relentlessly to ensure quality cancer care access to all. Happy Holidays! justgiving.com/campaign/ACTf…

We can do better by ensuring that patients have an understandable pathway to navigate interventions that lie outside standard-care. We want to help patients and oncologists make more confident choices with innovative treatments. #cancer #canceresearch #patients #oncologists
