THERE is less than one month to go before we mark World Cancer Day.
And this year we are calling on cancer survivors to share their stories to help inspire others.
The event takes place every year on February 4 in the hope of uniting the world’s population in the fight against cancer.
It aims to save millions of preventable deaths each year by raising awareness and education about the disease and pressing governments and individuals across the world to take action.
Funds raised from World Cancer Day unity bands will also support thousands of scientists, doctors and nurses to accelerate progress in the fight against more than 200 cancer types.
If you have been diagnosed with cancer, we would love to hear your story.
Please use the form below to tell us about your cancer journey and any advice for those currently battling the condition.
Please include your name, the area you live and your contact details.
