Ovarian cancer doesn’t always have obvious signs, so knowing the symptoms can save lives.

The most common symptoms include:

• Persistent bloating
• Difficulty eating or feeling full quickly
• Persistent abdominal or pelvic pain
• Changes in urination or bowel habits

Throughout March, our brilliant nurses have been hosting information stalls in hospitals across the region, helping to raise awareness of ovarian cancer symptoms and encouraging people to listen to their bodies.

These stalls are part of our ongoing partnership as a Cancer Alliance with registered charity Ovacome - The Ovarian Cancer Support Charity, who provided trusted information and resources — including materials in a range of languages to support our diverse communities.

Thank you to our teams for helping spread this vital message 💚

Martha's Rule helps detect deterioration in hospital patients early. It gives patients and families the right to call for a rapid review if they are worried a loved one’s condition – or their own – is getting worse.

Staff can also ask for a review from a different team if they are concerned any appropriate action is not being taken.
