Have your say: Help to develop a 10-year cancer plan for Humber and North Yorkshire
We want people who live, work or receive care in Humber and North Yorkshire to tell us what matters most so we can build cancer services that meet local needs over the next decade.
A national NHS 10-year cancer plan is expected to be published in autumn, which follows the publication of the 10-year health plan for England, unveiled in July, which sets out fundamental reform of the NHS through transformational change to ensure its sustainability for years to come.
In support, Humber and North Yorkshire Cancer Alliance and partners are working to develop a 10-year plan for cancer in Humber and North Yorkshire, to help to transform the treatment, diagnosis and care for people diagnosed with cancer in our region in years to come.

Have your say on the plan: Complete the survey
Humber and North Yorkshire Cancer Alliance is seeking your views and ideas on the contents of the Humber and North Yorkshire plan for cancer in order to improve outcomes for people diagnosed with cancer in our region.
We want to hear from:
- current and past cancer patients and carers
- people working in cancer services
- people working in other healthcare settings which support cancer patients general public
How will your survey responses be used?
The views and experiences shared through the survey by cancer services staff, patients, carers, and members of the public will play a vital role in shaping the 10-year plan for cancer in Humber and North Yorkshire .
By listening to the perspectives of those who deliver, receive, and support cancer care, we can identify what is working well and where improvements are needed.
The feedback will help Humber and North Yorkshire Cancer Alliance and partners to understand local priorities, highlight gaps in services, and ensure that future plans reflect the real needs of our communities.
All responses will be carefully reviewed and used to guide decisions on how cancer services are transformed across the region over the next decade.
Community engagement activity
In the summer, Cancer Alliance staff and partners embarked on an extensive community engagement roadshow to speak to cancer patients and the public about the upcoming development of a 10-year plan for cancer in the region.
We spoke to hundreds of people at more than a dozen events, including:
- Driffield Show
- Messingham Show
- Scarborough and Scunthorpe Pride events
