#bladdercancer is often diagnosed later in women than men.

One of the most common early symptoms is blood in your wee – even just once. It might look bright red, rusty or dark brown. There may be clots.

Don’t ignore it. Even if it disappears, speak to your GP. Early diagnosis is vital.

Although many non-smokers develop bladder cancer, smoking greatly increases a person’s risk of developing it.

Stoptober is coming this October, and we are ready to support you.

Our final speaker of the day was Chris, a bladder cancer patient, who wanted to share his story of living with bladder cancer.

Thanks for sharing your story, Chris. This means a lot to us and to the Nurses that come to our event.
