OUR REGION
Living in the North West, we are 25% more likely to be diagnosed with cancer than anywhere else in the UK.
Thats why North West Cancer Research is dedicated to putting our region's cancer needs first, funding pioneering research and education to tackle the cause, improve the care and find the cure for cancer.
Spotted something different?
Blood in your wee is the most common symptom of bladder cancer, having blood in your wee doesn't necessarily mean you have bladder cancer, but you should always visit your GP as an early diagnosis could lead to better outcomes.
It’s currently the 11th most common cancer in the UK and across the North West, rates are 13% higher than the English average.
If you have any concerns about the signs and symptoms of bladder cancer, please visit your GP. It’s probably nothing, but it’s best to get it checked.
