Please help in our cancer care research survey, so we can better place young people and their families needs at the centre of cancer support.⬇️
📢 We need help sharing the survey to hear from young people across the UK, with experience of cancer. If that's you, your story can help shape the cancer support of tomorrow’s patients. By sharing it, you can champion and lead the changes you want to see. https://t.co/qkKpb7TXcQ

Help needed to get a back back to a doctor. This AM I found black leather bag lying in the street in N21, contents all over the road. I guess stolen then dumped. Inside the bag there was a stethoscope, a book with lots of medical notes #medtwitter @TheDA_UK @Doctors_net_uk

Tobacco kills one person every five minutes in the UK - this is outrageous. Great to be supporting @CRUK_Policy @BobBlackman @marykfoy and many other decent MPs pushing for more tobacco and vaping controls. @CancerPOINTE @UKIGlobalCancer
4/ More than 10 years ago, Campaigns Ambassadors @gowertan and @n_D_ranasinghe attended a debate on standardised packaging for tobacco. However, the fight isn't over. And today they came back – to continue campaigning for a #SmokefreeUK. 💪
