Community, friendliness and helpfulness are just some of the things people in Liverpool City Region are famous for. Unfortunately, we're also known to have higher death rates due to cancer, compared to the rest of the UK.
One of the best ways to lower our death rates due to cancer is by knowing how to spot the signs and symptoms of the cancers that affect our region the most.
The more people in our region who know what to look out for, the better chance someone has of getting an earlier diagnosis and therefore a better outcome.
Not only does cancer affect the person diagnosed with it, but it also impacts the lives of the friends and family around them.
That's why in true Northern spirit, we need everyone to come together and learn what to look out for, share the information with loved ones, and speak up if you think someone you know may not be aware that their symptoms could be cancer.
Unfortunately, people in our area are more likely to die from the following cancers.
That's why it's so important to know what to look out for. Chances are it's probably nothing, but you should speak to your GP just to be sure.
