In their words
Reaching underserved communities
An outreach programme backed by ROC set out to raise awareness of early diagnosis in communities where it’s often lowest — running sessions in local settings rather than waiting for people to come to a clinic.
Hundreds of people attended, several were signposted to screening they’d otherwise have missed, and local professionals gained skills and confidence they’ve carried into their day-to-day work.
“We reached people who’d never have walked into a hospital for this. That’s exactly who outreach is for. Placeholder quote to be replaced with a real programme lead’s words.”
