According to the research by Imperial College London, the risk of dying from cancer varies widely across different regions of England. The analysis of NHS data shows that men and women in northern England cities have the highest risk of death from cancer, while those living in the London boroughs have the lowest risk. Additionally, cancer is now the leading cause of death in England, surpassing cardiovascular diseases.
The Less Survivable Cancers Taskforce has expressed concern over the UK's poor cancer survival rates compared to other wealthy countries. The UK ranks low in terms of five-year survival rates for different types of cancer. The research also highlights specific regions in England, including Liverpool, Manchester, Hull, Newcastle, and coastal areas near London, with higher mortality rates from cancer.
