We are a coalition of the UK’s leading lung cancer experts, senior NHS professionals, charities and healthcare companies.
🫁 Working together to improve lung cancer care and outcomes.
🔗 https://www.uklcc.org.uk/
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.

Last week lung cancer survival rates hit the news www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

We’ve made huge strides in #LungCancer survival - but mustn’t relent! We need 100% funding for full roll-out of #screening in England by 2030 & embedded UK-wide to boost early detection & improve 5 and 10-year survival.

This is fantastic news! 🗞️ www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Well done to all the teams in Wales who’ve been pushing for this. Result of concerted pressure from charities and clinicians pointing to evidence and progress of the national #LungCancerScreening programme in England.
Lung cancer screening for smokers and former smokers in Wales
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in Wales but symptoms usually appear late.

Together with our #LungCancer colleagues we have engaged with @ashleydaltonmp.bsky.social to ensure a fully funded roll-out of the targeted national #LungCancerScreening programme by March 2030 is included in the National Cancer Plan 2025 & remains on track.

Check out our blog on the NCLA State of the Nation 2025 report.

While progress in early diagnosis and survival is clear, growing pressures on treatment pathways and persistent inequalities risk slowing further advances.

The time from taking a #LungCancer biopsy to reporting pathology and genomics test results should take no longer than 14 days.

Yet, sadly, this is often not the case.

Our report sets out how to make it happen ▶️ uklcc.org.uk/our-reports

Less than two-thirds (60%) of genomic tests in England are delivered on time, according to a recent review.
