Hi everyone
My name’s Emma. I work in the Policy and Influencing team at Breast Cancer Now.
As many of you will be aware, a key part of our current secondary breast cancer campaign is to ensure that everyone with secondary breast cancer receives a prompt diagnosis.
With that in mind, we’ve started working with GatewayC, an online cancer education platform developed for GPs, practice nurses and other primary care professionals.
They are currently developing a course for GPs on breast cancer recurrences, including secondary breast cancer. The aim of the course will be to help GPs to diagnose secondary breast cancer more quickly, and to improve patient experience through improved communication.
To help them shape the course, they are currently looking to hear from people with secondary breast cancer in the brain.
The level of involvement is flexible and could include: sending your thoughts by email, having a chat over the phone with the course developers or being filmed for the course itself.
If you are interested, please contact Laura Swainston from GatewayC for more information, with no obligation to take part. You can contact Laura by phone on 01614 463 403 or by email at laura.swainston@christie.nhs.uk
Best wishes
Emma
