Cancer Screen Awareness Project

Age UK Kensington & Chelsea in partnership with Age UK Westminster.

The project aims to increase attendances to Early Cancer Screenings, by raising awareness among the population, focusing on Prostate, Bowel and Breast cancer screenings.

Early detection of cancer is important because:

• Detects cancer before it spreads, making treatment more simple and short.
• Improves survival rates as early detection increases chances of successful treatment.
• Reduces treatment costs, duration and minimizes the side effects of added and combined therapy.
• Avoids suffering from symptoms caused by the progression of the disease.
• Saves thousands additional lives every year in the UK, according to the NHS
