DATA from Cancer Research UK suggests that over 500,000 people in the UK will be diagnosed with Cancer every year for nearly 15 years. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Charities are warning the UK government and the devolved nations that if the projections are right, the NHS is in danger of being overwhelmed from the surge in cases. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As well as the expected surge in cases, the number of deaths from cancer will also rise. The report shows that death will rise by around a quarter and that there will be 3.5 million deaths from now until then. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Welsh Government said that its plan will try and tackle the estimated projections in cases. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We are investing heavily in cancer services to increase prevention and early detection and provide rapid access to investigation, treatment and high-quality cancer care. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The statement comes after the Welsh Government announced last week their Three-year Cancer Improvement Plan. The plan is aimed at trying to reduce waiting times as well as increase accessibility to cancer treatment and care. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, Nia, a nurse from Velindre Cancer Centre says that despite government iniatives, there must also be a campaign to try and spot the signs of cancer as well as trying to encourage people to live healthier lives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

She says, “There’s definitely more within our personal lives that can help”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Being sure about our diet and eating the correct foods and noticing changes within our bodies”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“All of these things can help spot the signs of cancer”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
