Cancer Awareness Survey

Your local Cancer Alliance wants to understand more about the level of cancer awareness and support within our area. We’re undertaking a survey of residents in North Yorkshire and York, Humber, East Riding, North Lincolnshire and North East Lincolnshire and would really appreciate you taking the time to answer some questions about your awareness of cancer symptoms and how you would seek help. We want to talk to as many different groups of people as possible, and your views are important.
