Today's Welsh Government announcement means that as of next year Wales will no longer be the only UK nation without a long term strategic approach to cancer. You can read the response from our Chair @lowrigriffiths.bsky.social on our website walescanceralliance.org/2026/07/15/w...

Unscientific survey: do you use an algorithmic or chronological timeline as your main view here? quick poll, 3 clicks total. strawpoll.com/7rnzVXJXYnO
Popular misconception: most aren't. Though the hard-core blueskyers are using a *mostly* chronological one, the default has been algorithmic since 2024.

Read Joe's story as she shares her experience of getting diagnosed with endometrial cancer👇 Thank you Joe 💜
Joe Todds Joe, 64, from Swansea, experienced chronic backache and spotting years after menopause. When she visited her GP, they were dismissive and declined to investigate further. Concerned, Joe decided to go private, where a scan revealed endometrial cancer.

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. www.uklcc.org.uk #UKLCC2025

Jess's Rule will require GPs in England to "think again" if patients return 3 times with unresolved or worsening symptoms, or without a diagnosis. We would like to see similar ambition here in Wales, to ensure women are safeguarded and listened to. 💜 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Less than 4 months since losing Clare O’Shea, her brother Ben is determined to keep her legacy alive. Clare’s Campaign is still fighting for women with gynaecological cancers to be heard, after delays and misdiagnoses cost Clare her life. clairescampaign.cymru
