I know I bang on a lot about supportive cancer care. But the thing is it’s so good. We help patients across the board - it doesn’t matter what stage - supportive care provides expert care when patients need it. #supponc@UKASCC@CancerCareMASCC#thefuture
gov.uk/government/news/every… For the first time, every patient will get a Personalised Cancer Plan that looks beyond just treatment and diagnosis to cover the full impact of cancer on their life - from anxiety and fatigue to diet and returning to work. Didn’t expect that ✅🆗
The government has launched its National Cancer Plan for England.
Dr Neil Bayman, our medical director, shares his initial thoughts on key elements of the plan, including care closer to home, earlier diagnosis, and the use of cutting-edge technology.

ALT A quote from Dr Neil Bayman, Executive Medical Director at The Christie:
"The publication of the National Cancer Plan reinforces the direction we are already taking. The key commitments, including more personalised support and more consistent access to care, align with our neighbourhood oncology plans and our long-standing commitment to delivering the highest quality care for our patients."
You don't negotiate with someone who marches into another country, devastates it, killing whoever stands in his way. You get him out, you make him pay, and see that he is never in a position to do these things again.
'We are not helpless bystanders as we observe the wider determinants of health' Prof. Peter Johnson taking us through the current state of Cancer Care in the UK. @UKASCC#UKASCC2025
More people are living longer with cancer, bringing new challenges for the NHS.
We’re calling for urgent investment in supportive oncology services to meet people’s physical, emotional and social needs.
