World Cancer Day 🎗️

Today we come together to raise awareness, show support and stand with everyone affected by cancer, whether you’re living with cancer, supporting someone you love, or remembering someone special.

World Cancer Day is also a reminder of the importance of early diagnosis, prevention and access to the right care and support.

💛 No one should face cancer alone.
👉 Find trusted information, support and advice on the NHS website:

Find out more about cancer, including the possible symptoms, types of cancer, common treatments, causes and ways to reduce your risk, as well as information on waiting times for diagnosis and treatment.

King Street Walk-in Centre – we need your views

The King Street walk-in centre provides care for people with urgent health needs, without the need for an appointment.

Wakefield District Health & Care Partnership wants to hear from patients and local people about how they use the walk-in centre, what works well and where there might be opportunities to improve the service.

Your views will help us understand local needs and shape future services in line with the latest NHS guidance. We are asking people to complete a short, anonymous survey.

Please take a few minutes to take our survey.

This February, let’s show our hearts some love ❤️

Heart disease affects millions of people, but small changes can make a big difference. Eating well, moving more, stopping smoking and checking your blood pressure can all help keep your heart healthy.

💡 Did you know? Checking your blood pressure regularly is one of the simplest ways to look after your heart.

Let’s use National Heart Month to take a moment for our health – and encourage those around us to do the same.
