A woman with blonde hair in a grey jumper sits thoughtfully by a train window, looking outside. The image highlights healthcare accessibility challenges with text stating "Patients in rural areas and lower-income families face the greatest challenges" and "Specialist centres out of reach." The Sarcoma UK "Unique Among Cancers: Sarcoma Review Needed" campaign branding appears in the bottom right corner.
A young woman in a white top lies on white bedding, gazing upward with a contemplative expression. The image addresses psychological support gaps with text stating "Many patients and families are left without the psychological help they need" and "Mental health support is lacking."
A researcher in safety goggles and blue gloves carefully handles a pipette with purple liquid in a laboratory setting. The image emphasises research funding needs with text stating "Few new treatments are on the horizon. Investment is needed now" and "Sarcoma research funding lags behind."
A teal background with medical imagery shows the campaign's call to action, stating "We're calling on the UK Government and the devolved administrations in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland to urgently review sarcoma services and implement the report's recommendations. Patients and families can't wait any longer."
Our findings show that while many patients speak positively about the treatment they receive at specialist centres, too many face unacceptable delays in diagnosis, unequal access to specialist care, and a lack of research investment.

The text emphasises this is "Sarcoma UK's most comprehensive review yet" calling for "urgent changes needed for people affected by sarcoma." The campaign's distinctive branding is prominently displayed.
A thoughtful man in a blue checked shirt rests his chin on his hands against a warm, indoor background. The image conveys the lengthy diagnostic journey with text stating "Many see multiple healthcare professionals before finally being referred" and "1 in 3 patients wait more than 6 months for a diagnosis."
A young woman with long red hair wearing a patterned top looks directly at the camera with a serious expression. The image addresses diagnostic disparities with text explaining how "women, young people and those with rarer subtypes" face "misdiagnoses and delays" because "referral pathways often fail."
A person wearing a polka-dot headscarf and grey cardigan lies in bed holding a mobile phone, representing a patient during treatment. The text emphasises the need for research investment, stating "Few new treatments available" and calling for better treatment options for patients.
Weβre proud to release Unique Among Cancers - Sarcoma UKβs most comprehensive review ever of sarcoma treatment and services across the UK, built on insights gathered directly from patients, families, and professionals.

Madleen freedom flotilla crew

Every person aboard the Madleen is a hero.
The genocidal Israeli state's attack on unarmed activists aboard a UK-flagged vessel delivering aid to Gaza is a flagrant breach of international law.
The UK must sanction Israel, end all arms & surveillance, & expel its ambassador.
