Cancer Research UK Talk Cancer sessions

Greater Manchester Cancer Alliance has commissioned some Talk Cancer sessions from Cancer Research UK to train and give confidence to people in their ability to talk about cancer in their communities.

The training is open to staff working in the NHS in Greater Manchester.

The Talk Cancer training will help you to:

Talk to people about how they could reduce their risk of cancer
Help people understand the importance of spotting cancer early and the screening programmes
Appreciate and address the fears and barriers faced by people when talking about cancer
Have effective, supportive conversations about cancer and health
Understand the impact health inequalities can have on cancer outcomes
Encourage people to take positive action, use local services and see their doctor with any concerns
