In August, the Community Channel [1] is running The C Word, a month long season of programmes highlighting the need to spot cancer early to get the best chance of successful treatment and also the work of the organisations in this field.
A new series of films called Spotting Cancer Early are being premiered on the Channel during this season. They are covering lung, bowel, mouth and breast cancer.
There are two other programmes specifically relating to breast cancer - one on how to spot the symptoms of breast cancer in a new film called Being Breast Aware and another on how to get back to health after breast cancer, where women share experiences of how diet and exercise have improved their wellbeing called Eating Well, Being Active. There are a number of other films and programmes relating to other cancers.
On their website, they are featuring personal stories of those affected by cancer.
For more information see their website at www.communitychannel.org/cword
Cancer Research UK are also campaigning for the early detection of cancer and have information on their website at www.spotcancerearly.com
