By the time Jade was diagnosed with ALK+ #lungcancer, she’d been visiting her GP for four years with symptoms no one linked to lung cancer.
If you’ve had a persistent cough, hoarseness or tiredness that won’t go away - don’t ignore it. Anyone can get lung cancer. 💟
#AllYouNeedIsLungs #LCAM
The 3rd year of this campaign to raise awareness that anyone can get lung cancer, and to help people recognise symptoms and improve early diagnosis.
Wouldn’t it be great to think campaigns like this were no longer necessary?

What a night 💟
#AllYouNeedIsLungs was a finalist for Best Charity/Not-for-Profit Campaign at the UK Social Media Awards.
We didn’t take home a trophy (apart from best 360 booth dancing 🕺), but we don’t need one to know we’re making a real impact in #LungCancer awareness.
#LCSM
A 30-year Delhi study shows how #lungcancer risk is changing: in 1988, 90% of surgical patients were smokers. By 2018, just 50%. Among those under 30, none had smoked. It shows how lung cancer risks are changing. (Economic Times) #AllYouNeedIsLungs #LCSM
An article in Neoscope reports that 25% of #lungcancer cases in Canada are in people who’ve never smoked.
Globally, Dr Rosalyn Juergens warns more women die of lung cancer than breast, ovarian, & cervical cancers combined. #AllYouNeedIsLungs #LCSM

The training was for staff in roles across the surgery, along with their own GPs and others who join them as a training centre.
I’m very grateful to BCHC for taking this on, and hope it can inspire other surgeries to remind staff that #AllYouNeedIsLungs to get #LungCancer.
It’s becoming increasingly difficult to argue that the significant increase in lung cancer and the change of type within that is just random bad luck.
We desperately need our government to face reality.
