Alastair Richards, CEO of North West Cancer Research Tenovus Cancer Care and North West Cancer Research (NWCR) are delighted to announce the joint funding of a new research project that aims to improve early cancer diagnosis, particularly for vulnerable groups. The Covid-19 pandemic has led to the widespread use of remote (telephone and video) consulting by GPs and other primary care providers. For some patients, this type of consultation will be acceptable, and they may even prefer this approach. However, for others it may mean that they delay seeking help, which could lead to a less positive outcome. Vulnerable groups such as older people, people living in deprived areas or people from black, Asian and minority groups already face more and different barriers when seeking help, and often only seek help when their cancer is at a more advanced stage.
