Planning for the long term is no longer optional. It is essential if we are to provide people affected by cancer in Wales with the care and support they need. You can read the full briefing here 👇 walescanceralliance.org/wp-content/u...

“Currently, prehabilitation services are not routinely available to everyone who could benefit and it is time to ensure that effort is made to reduce the variation in access.” @lowrigriffiths.bsky.social Chair, Wales Cancer Alliance

Prehabilitation is now in all National Optimal Pathways. Yet significant inequities persist in access, referral and uptake across NHS Wales. walescanceralliance.org/wp-content/u...

This #OvarianCancerAwarenessMonth we’re joining @walescanceralliance.org member - @targetovarian.bsky.social to help raise awareness of the symptoms of ovarian cancer and ensure more women know cervical screening will not detect #ovariancancer.
In infographic containing the symptoms of ovarian cancer - Bloated tummy, no appetite / feeling full quickly, tummy pain and needing to wee more.  The advice is that if symptoms are persistent to ask your GP about ovarian cancer.

42 per cent of women in Wales wrongly believe that cervical screening will detect #ovariancancer. With no viable screening programme, it is vital that every woman knows the symptoms of ovarian cancer.

Today www.audit.wales has published its report into cancer services in Wales. Our Chair, @lowrigriffiths.bsky.social has made a statement on behalf of the Wales Cancer Alliance. The full statement is here on the @walescancer.bsky.social website. walescanceralliance.org/wp-content/u...
Lowri Griffiths, Chair of the Wales Cancer Alliance said: 

“The Wales Cancer Alliance welcomes the publication of Audit Wales’ report into NHS Wales’ strategic approach to improving timeliness of cancer diagnosis and treatment.  

With only a few exceptions, cancer waiting times across Wales for all tumour sites has stagnated below 60% and far from the national target of 75% for several years. Wales’ cancer outcomes are also amongst the worst across the developed world and cancer inequalities are increasing - this is unacceptable.  

We welcome Audit Wales’ overall conclusion and recommendations, they have been based upon a rigorous appraisal of the performance, resources, and strategic direction of cancer services in Wales, and validate our own frustrations around the strategic leadership of Cancer Services over recent years.
