💜 #WorldCancerDay — United by Unique
Every cancer journey is different, but we’re united in improving outcomes.
In Northern Ireland, pancreatic cancer is often diagnosed late. At NIPANC, we’re working to change that through awareness, advocacy, research & support shaped by lived experience.

💜 Pancreatic cancer symptoms are often easy to miss — and that’s the danger.
Ongoing pain, unexplained weight loss, fatigue, indigestion, jaundice…
If something feels wrong, get it checked.
Early diagnosis saves lives.
