Have your say on cancer care across North Yorkshire

Humber and North Yorkshire Cancer Alliance is asking people across the region to share their views on cancer services through a short online survey.

The feedback will help shape a 10 year cancer plan for Humber and North Yorkshire, ensuring future services reflect people’s real experiences and priorities.

What is this about?

A new National Cancer Plan for England sets out how cancer care and outcomes could improve over the coming years. In response, Humber and North Yorkshire Cancer Alliance and local NHS partners are developing a 10 year cancer plan for Humber and North Yorkshire.

This local plan is about making sure national ambitions translate into improvements that matter to people living in our area, taking account of local needs, different communities, and the challenges of delivering services across a large and varied region.

Read the National Cancer Plan

The plan links to national work to improve cancer outcomes in England, but this local survey is about making sure services in Humber and North Yorkshire reflect people’s real experiences, priorities, and challenges.
