Lung cancer causes more deaths than any other cancer in the UK. It is commonly diagnosed too late, due to there often being no symptoms at the earlier stages.

The Lung Cancer Screening programme helps save more lives, by identifying lung cancer at an earlier stage, when it is much more treatable. When lung cancer is diagnosed early there are more options for treatment and a higher chance of survival.

Lung Health Checks are offered to people who are registered with a STW GP Practice, are aged 55 to 74 and who are current or former smokers.
