Be Clear on Cancer
Description of the campaign:
Be Clear on Cancer campaigns aim to improve early diagnosis of cancer by raising public awareness of signs and/or symptoms of cancer, and to encourage people to see their GP without delay.

Each campaign is tested locally and then regionally, with a view to rolling them out nationally if they prove to be effective.
