How important is it to get an early cancer diagnosis?

Research suggests that 1 in 2 people in the UK will receive a cancer diagnosis in their lifetime. To help support those affected by the condition, today we launched our brand-new strand, ‘living with cancer’. From diagnosis and treatment, to finances and supporting loved ones, we will have the ultimate guide to ‘the big c’ here at Morning Live over the coming months. Coronation Street actor Victoria Ekanoye, who had breast cancer, and Dr. Xand give an overview of what to expect from the medical side of things, including diagnosis and treatment. 

To watch this with subtitles, go to BBC iPlayer and search for Morning Live from 26/08/24.
