Last week lung cancer survival rates hit the news www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... We’ve made huge strides in #LungCancer survival - but mustn’t relent! We need 100% funding for full roll-out of #screening in England by 2030 & embedded UK-wide to boost early detection & improve 5 and 10-year survival.

This is fantastic news! 🗞️ www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Well done to all the teams in Wales who’ve been pushing for this. Result of concerted pressure from charities and clinicians pointing to evidence and progress of the national #LungCancerScreening programme in England.

Together with our #LungCancer colleagues we have engaged with @ashleydaltonmp.bsky.social to ensure a fully funded roll-out of the targeted national #LungCancerScreening programme by March 2030 is included in the National Cancer Plan 2025 & remains on track. Blog ▶️ www.uklcc.org.uk/blog/april-2...

Check out our blog on the NCLA State of the Nation 2025 report. While progress in early diagnosis and survival is clear, growing pressures on treatment pathways and persistent inequalities risk slowing further advances. Authored by by Dr Lauren Dixon ▶️ uklcc.org.uk/blog/april-2...

The time from taking a #LungCancer biopsy to reporting pathology and genomics test results should take no longer than 14 days. Yet, sadly, this is often not the case. Our report sets out how to make it happen ▶️ uklcc.org.uk/our-reports #GenomicTesting

Less than two-thirds (60%) of genomic tests in England are delivered on time, according to a recent review. Help us achieve faster #GenomicTesting and save more lives from #LungCancer. Read our report ow.ly/IFc450V9wGk

The UKLCC Conference will be held on the 4th November and will explore the future of #LungCancer diagnosis, treatment and management. We invite proposals for lightning presentations to feature in the programme - submissions are open until the 30th May ow.ly/6YxL50VsVAH

No one with #LungCancer should wait more than 14 days for genomic test results. Yet in some UK regions, patients are facing delays of several weeks. This is unacceptable. ⚠️ Read our new report and help us put this right ow.ly/lxak50V9wEs #BTOG25

⏳ Genomic testing delays cost lives. New @uklungcancer.bsky.social report reveals many people with #lungcancer are waiting weeks for genomic test results—far beyond the 14-day target. Some samples are even sent by 2nd class post. Not good enough. #LCSM shorturl.at/6AoaF

This survey aims to find out whether there are particular things that people with non-smoking lung cancer need to find out, and what stops people getting the information they need, and what helps them. Link to survey 🔗⬇️

#Lungcancer isn’t one story. Every experience is unique. Today is World Cancer Day, and we’re pushing for greater awareness & action. This year’s theme is “United by Unique,” - no one should be defined by their diagnosis or “patient” status. 💙 www.allyouneedislungs.org.uk/volunteers-v... #LCSM

World Cancer Day is a reminder to come together to take action against cancer. Share cancer stories, support those affected, and advocate for people-centred care. Learn more about the #UnitedByUnique campaign and explore stories this #WorldCancerDay ▶️ ow.ly/ooak50UT4Rz
