Dany Bell - Macmillan Cancer Support UK, London, UK

Dany Bell speaks to ecancer at the 2019 UKONS meeting in Telford about the importance of policy in driving systemic change in cancer care and practice compared to research and education.

She emphasises that workforce is limited in cancer care and required urgent attention and improvement.

For the future, Dany believes that campaigning should be continued and discusses how the NHS is heavily influenced by political changes.
