11th January 2026 is Less Survivable Cancers Awareness Day – 11/01/25

The day aims to raise awareness about less survivable cancers and the importance of early diagnosis in improving survival and quality of life for people diagnosed with these cancers.
Currently, in the UK over 90,000 people are diagnosed with one of the less survivable cancers every year. Despite accounting for over 40% of common cancer deaths, the less survivable cancers still suffer from low awareness among the public and health practitioners.
