CMCA have developed The Action on Cancer (AoC) Toolkit to help organisations and individuals engage with their communities.
The toolkit combines practical resources with tried and tested methods to enhance community engagement and improve cancer outcomes for local people.
It will help community organisers to achieve three primary objectives:
- Promote, encourage and empower people to have healthier lifestyles
- Increase early diagnosis of cancers through screening programmes
- Empower patients to recognise possible early signs and symptoms of cancer and take timely action
The toolkit has been developed following successful initiatives in South Cheshire and Vale Royal.
