Interesting article from @KatharineQ on @BBC_Future about the risks of asbestos in drinking water. Pipes made from asbestos cement are delivering drinking water to people and scientists are now questioning the impact this may have on human health. bbc.com/future/article/20240…

If you have personal experience of #mesothelioma or another cancer you can share your views as part of the national Cancer Patient Experiences survey and help shape the future of cancer care in the UK
Understanding patients’ experiences of care and treatment is extremely important to the NHS as it helps adapt services to best suit patients needs. If invited, have your say in the #CancerPatientExperienceSurvey ncpes.co.uk @NHSEngland
