Southport and Formby has achieved the highest lung cancer screening uptake in Cheshire and Merseyside, with an outstanding 68% participation rate.

More than 8,000 local people completed a lung health check, over 4,800 CT scans were carried out, and eight lung cancers have been identified so far, helping people access treatment earlier when it is most effective.

A huge thank you to everyone who took part and helped make this life-saving programme such a success. ๐Ÿ’™
