Cancer is almost always more treatable when it’s found early, and the NHS Long Term Plan is aiming to achieve the diagnosis of 75% of all cancers at stage 1 or 2, by 2028. Here in Greater Manchester work is already well underway to get us towards this target.
In this episode presenter Steve Bland explores what we’re doing to hit that target with Dr Sarah Taylor, Primary Care Lead for GM + Clinical Lead for Early Diagnosis and Ali Jones, Director of Cancer Commissioning and Early Diagnosis.
He also chats to patient Caroline Mattinson about her own experience with bowel cancer and finds out how catching her disease early was crucial to her positive outcome.
