JUNE 2024 NEUROENDOCRINE CANCER UK QUARTERLY NEWSLETTER

News

Neuroendocrine cancer making headlines ‘I thought my back hurt from sitting badly at my desk at work – now I’ve got incurable cancer’.

It is with mixed emotions that we announce the departure of our beloved Administration Assistant, Jackie, who will be leaving us on the 20th of June. Over the last two years, Jackie has been an invaluable member of our team, dedicating herself to sending out resources, supporting the team with various administrative duties, and being a friendly voice on the office phone to many of you. Jackie has decided to pursue a new role in bowel screening, and while we will miss her greatly, we are excited for her as she embarks on this new chapter in her career. Please join us in wishing Jackie all the best in her future endeavours. She will always be a part of the Neuroendocrine Cancer UK family. Farewell to our wonderful colleague, Jackie

Izzie Collins spent months putting her constant aches down to poor posture and being stationary for too long. But in April 2024, the 30-year-old was delivered the life-changing news that she has stage four neuroendocrine tumours. Izzie’s story is featured in full in The Sun online from 5th June 2024, raising vital awareness of neuroendocrine cancer and highlighting the impact it has on all those affected by this disease. To read the article in full, please CLICK HERE. A mum who thought her back pain was from sitting at a desk all day was later diagnosed with incurable cancer.
