Raising awareness across Stockport

Along with our partners, we're responsible for raising awareness of cancer screening programmes across the borough and encouraging residents to look out for warning signs.

You can find out how we're working with local communities across Stockport on Healthy Stockport's cancer awareness in the community webpage.

Thousands of people beat cancer every year. Treatment is often simpler and more effective the earlier it begins. So if you notice any of the warning signs, it's really important you see your GP.

On these pages you can find more information about:

  • the 3 screening programmes in Stockport
  • what symptoms to look out for
  • the latest, national ‘Be clear on cancer’ campaign
