Macmillanlogo If you're interested in helping people with cancer receive fairer and more equal treatment, we need your help. We're carrying out research to find out if people from different backgrounds receive the same type and quality of service or if there are differences in the way people are treated.

Obviously, everybody’s experience of cancer and cancer services is different and unique. What we would like to understand is whether particular groups face particular types of inequality or discrimination. Do some people find it harder to access cancer services? Is everybody treated with the same amount of dignity and respect when receiving treatment or advice? Understanding this will help to generate evidence which can be used to improve cancer services across the UK.
