New to our project. The Hunts Community Cancer Network wants to raise awareness of cancer and try to take some of the fear away.
We are hearing that soon 1 in 2 people will have a cancer diagnosis at some point in their lives.
Have you also heard though that 90 % of stage 1 cancers can be cured!!
Early detection saves lives.
Come along and find out what your risk factors are
Talk to a professional about your cancer concerns.

Thank you for the Chocolate which has been donated from various people - one of our lovely volunteers made up a chocolate hamper ready for our firewalk. Sadly we can’t use it for that purpose so we have given it to our pharmacy team who are working so hard at the moment!

We are bursting with pride at our wonderful nursing team who are heading into unchartered waters at the moment. They are now wearing uniform to reduce the risk of Covid 19 contamination.
Karen’s message is: “We are working harder than ever to stop patients coming to hospital & only visiting patients for a clinical need to avoid contact to protect them and us. Also we are ringing patients before we visit to check if any symptoms. However if they do have any please contact us before we visit.”
