Advances in medical science mean that we are living longer and healthier lives than ever before. But the chances of contracting a serious illness might be higher than you think.
In the UK:
- Every two minutes someone is diagnosed with cancer.
- While more than 1 in 3 people will develop some sort of cancer during their lifetime, half of people diagnosed now survive their disease for more than 5 years*
More and more, we are surviving serious illnesses that would once have proved fatal. However, this success creates its own set of difficulties - the cost of survival.
