At UCAN IRELAND it's our mission to highlight inequalities in access to cancer treatments & fight for patients. This is why. This is the reality experienced by patients & their families. It's heartbreaking 💔 #UnitedCancerVoicesIE #AccessToCancerTherapies #CancerKnowsNoBorders

Looks like a great conference in Denmark. National Screening Service have a great representation - lots of presentations. 2 of our posters are related to an equity research project with Cerviva which is investigating why some women age 50 yrs+ are underscreened #cervicalscreening #ICSN2025

Such a lovely beach and it's horrible to see it like this every single summer It's so frightening for people who are there just to enjoy the beach. No way I will be bringing my two young boys back to this beach while it's like this 😡
