Our Cancer Alliance aims to improve the lives of people affected by cancer in Greater Manchester. We are one of 21 Cancer Alliances across NHS England.
We want more people than ever to reduce their risk of developing cancer, and for those who do go on to develop cancer, we want to improve their survival outcomes and experiences.
We work in collaboration with organisations across our region to help people get diagnosed earlier, provide better treatment and support people to live well with and beyond cancer.

The Greater Manchester Cancer Conference
The Greater Manchester Cancer Conference took place on 18th and 19th October 2022 at the Hilton, Deansgate, Manchester, and featured a range of speakers talking about this years themes of collaboration – equality – innovation, and how these themes help us improve the lives of people affected by cancer in Greater Manchester and beyond.
