Last week lung cancer survival rates hit the news www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... We’ve made huge strides in #LungCancer survival - but mustn’t relent! We need 100% funding for full roll-out of #screening in England by 2030 & embedded UK-wide to boost early detection & improve 5 and 10-year survival.

This is fantastic news! 🗞️ www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Well done to all the teams in Wales who’ve been pushing for this. Result of concerted pressure from charities and clinicians pointing to evidence and progress of the national #LungCancerScreening programme in England.
