Improving cancer services

South Yorkshire and Bassetlaw’s partnership approach with our Cancer Alliance ensures we are developing and delivering services around the whole person, not just their cancer, for every stage of support they might need.

Our Alliance comprises of organisations who are responsible for commissioning and providing NHS cancer services as well as working closely with our charity and voluntary sector partners and patient groups.

Despite improvements, our rates of late stage cancer diagnosis continue to be below the national average and as a group of partners we are working to improve cancer survival rates, diagnose people earlier and faster and support people throughout their treatment and beyond.
