The inverse care law writ large. Low income groups in rural areas face the longest travel times by car or public transport to their nearest cancer centres. The design of our service has the capacity to perpetuate pre-existing inequalities in access. thegreenjournal.com/article/S0167-…

One in three women with breast cancer in England bypass their nearest surgical centre for treatment. Reasons not clear but our analysis shows reputation a factor rather than outcomes. How should this inform service design?👇 acsjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10… Jo Taylor @JanvanderMeule6

Worth attending for those involved in prostate cancer care. Focus on improving radiotherapy quality and supporting better access to systemic therapies. Utilisation rates remain too low for men with advanced disease in the UK. 👇
