The Cheshire & Merseyside Cancer Alliance (CMCA) is an NHS organisation that brings together healthcare professionals, community organisations, patients and others affected by cancer to drive improvements in clinical outcomes and patients’ experience of the care and treatment they receive.

They will be travelling across 10 locations across Cheshire and Merseyside, in partnership with Macmillan Cancer Support, between May and July 2022 to listen to people’s cancer experiences, and to understand how people are feeling about cancer services in their local area.

Jo Trask, Health Inequalities and Patient Experience Lead at CMCA, said: “We want to hear the views of local people about cancer services in their area. We also want to listen to their experiences of their support and care. We design Cancer services across the region and we want local people to have more say in how these services are designed and delivered.”
