The Cancer Awareness, Screening, and Early Diagnosis Initiative was a targeted, time-limited programme delivered across Lancashire and South Cumbria, with particular focus on East Lancashire and Blackpool. Funded through the VCFSE-led Small Grants Scheme for Cancer Education and Engagement, the initiative supported small community projects aimed at increasing awareness, encouraging screening, and promoting early diagnosis of lung, bowel, and pancreatic cancers. These cancers are often diagnosed too late for effective treatment, and this initiative aimed to change that by equipping communities with knowledge and confidence to take early action.
