The first of Humber and North Yorkshire Cancer Alliance’s free cancer awareness sessions for 2023 are now available to book onto.

In just 90-minutes, you can learn how to spot the early signs of cancer within a fun and interactive environment. We will also teach you about cancer prevention, national cancer screening programmes, and much more!

In the UK, one in two of us will be diagnosed with cancer in our lifetime. If cancer is found early, treatment can be simpler and more successful.

By joining our community of over 34,000 Cancer Champions, you can learn how to engage in conversations that promote early diagnosis and can help to save lives.

Anyone can become a Cancer Champion. No prior knowledge of cancer is required and once you have completed the training you will receive a digital handbook, Cancer Champion certificate and badge.

Syeda took part in the training and said: “After attending the Cancer Champions training everything felt so much clearer. Things were explained simply, and it gave me the confidence to book a screening appointment that I’d been putting off.”

Sign up for a free face-to-face or virtual awareness session or organise a bespoke session for your organisation. Visit www.hnycanceralliance.org.uk/cancerchampions. If you’ve any queries you can also email hny.cancerchampions@nhs.net or call 07519 120809.

We look forward to seeing you soon.
