In a world dominated by Covid 19, cancer patients may be loosing out on much needed services.

Cancer charities do include research and support for cancer patients but Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation continue to focus solely on lung cancer, supporting those it affects and raising vital awareness about the disease. They have lots of useful information including the signs and symptoms of lung cancer .

If you have any concerns their Helpline is open 0800 358 7200 where their nurses are ready to answer your questions.

Keep pushing until you get answers. If you feel you’re being a nuisance to your GP, so what! Be a nuisance. Be the biggest nuisance you can be but just persevere.”
