Today, we’re calling on the UK #LungCancer community to join us in making our new survival ambition a reality.

35 by 35: by 3035 we want 35% of people with lung cancer still alive 5 years after diagnosis.

📣 Today, Greg Pycroft, our Policy and Public Affairs Manager, will represent TCC at the @uklungcancer.bsky.social conference in London.

The UKLCC is marking its 20th Anniversary, and while significant developments have occurred over the past two decades, there's still so much to do.

Happy Halloween! 😱
The fundamental problem:

58% of voters want public spending maintained or increased.

67% want taxes to stay at their current level or be cut.

In reality, it’s a binary choice. Taxes go up, or spending is cut. That’s it.

Jess's Rule will require GPs in England to "think again" if patients return 3 times with unresolved or worsening symptoms, or without a diagnosis.

We would like to see similar ambition here in Wales, to ensure women are safeguarded and listened to. 💜

Less than 4 months since losing Clare O’Shea, her brother Ben is determined to keep her legacy alive. Clare’s Campaign is still fighting for women with gynaecological cancers to be heard, after delays and misdiagnoses cost Clare her life.

📢 Innovative thinking to tackle one of the less survivable cancers? We’re all for it.

We welcome today’s news that NHS England is trialing the ‘sponge-on-a-string’ test in pharmacies to help detect oesophageal cancer earlier, a step toward faster diagnosis!
