🎉 May Highlights! 🎉
📰 We were thrilled to announce that NICE has recommended SIRT (selective internal radiation therapy) for treating neuroendocrine tumour-related liver metastases. However, more work is needed to ensure equitable access and funding. We’ll continue to advocate for this essential treatment. (Link to news item & WebiNatter recording)
📅 We hosted a special focus Webi-Natter on SIRT with experts Raj Sririjaskanhthan, Rohini Sharma, and patient, Leanne Armstrong.
🗣️ We held a Self-Advocacy & Care Webi-Natter featuring Counselling Psychologist Elle Reed, who emphasised the importance of self-care and being heard in living with cancer.
🍰 We launched Cakes for a Cause to support our fundraising efforts!
🏥 Nikie proudly represented Neuroendocrine Cancer UK at the Bristol Patient Away Day, focusing on well-being and influential factors.
🎓 Our specialist nurse Olivia participated in the SCONET meeting in Glasgow, educating healthcare professionals about recent developments in neuroendocrine neoplasms and highlighting the impact of our charity.
