  • About Us

    Cancer Education UK is a registered charity based in the UK, whereby we focus on raising awareness about cancer within the Black, Asian, Minority Ethnic and Refugees (BAMER) communities and low socio-economic communities by holding teaching sessions around the different boroughs of London. In these sessions, we teach people from BAMER communities about signs and symptoms of cancer, encourage them to attend screening programmes under the NHS such as cervical screening which has low attendances from these group of people, offer free support to attend screening appointments, allow them to ask any questions, we encourage people from these background to talk about cancer more confidently and de-stigmatizes cancer being contagious or a death sentence.
