Blood Cancer UK is supporting researchers who are developing new studies focused on blood cancers in children and young people. They want to involve people with lived experience early on, to help make sure research plans reflect what really matters to families.
Researchers at the University of Stirling are inviting people with experience of melanoma to share quick feedback on how clear and easy to understand certain health questions are. By taking part in a short anonymous survey, participants can help improve a skin‑checking questionnaire used in the ASICA app, making it clearer and more supportive for others.
People affected by throat cancer are invited to a free online session sharing results from the UK’s first proton beam therapy trial. Hear directly from researchers and a patient advocate about what the findings mean for side effects, quality of life, and future treatment.
Join the NHP’s online patient forum to share your lived experience to help design safer, more inclusive hospitals and ensure the hospitals of the future truly reflects the needs of everyone.
