The Northern Cancer Alliance is holding a conference with a number of high profile speakers who will lead the discussions on how we respond to the challenge of creating world class cancer services.

Speakers will include:

Cally Palmer, NHS England’s National Clinical Director for Cancer
Linda Bauld, Professor of Behavioural Research for Cancer Prevention, CRUK
Mr Andrew Welch, Chair of the Northern Cancer Alliance

More people are surviving cancer than ever before, but as half of those born after 1960 will be diagnosed at some point in their lives, we know there is more we can do together to ensure we deliver truly world-class cancer services for all patients in the North East and North Cumbria.

This event will be suitable for anyone in the North East and North Cumbria with an interest in cancer - clinicians, commissioners, service users and other representatives from across health and social care, including the voluntary sector.

Be part of our discussion on:
