Ethnic Minority Cancer Awareness Week

EMCAW

Ethnic Minority Cancer Awareness Week is taking place between the 6th and 12th of  July 2009. The theme for this year is increasing awareness and early diagnosis of cancer among ethnic minority communities and groups. The week is organised by a collaboration of leading charities and are aiming to work in a number of cities across England.

The initiative was launched by Cancer Equality at their ‘Delivering Equality in Cancer Care-A Challenge for All’ conference in 2007. Following this a group of charities have come together to deliver a week of events to both raise cancer awareness and improve access to services amongst ethnic minorities. The work is funded by the Cancer Action Team.
