NHS cancer plan marks first step towards fixing chronic staff shortages Cancer rates are increasing, meaning more people than ever are being diagnosed with the disease. And with more people to look after, the NHS is coming under growing strain to meet demand – especially as it strives to meet the priority of diagnosing more cancers earlier.

And if it’s not working now, rising rates will only make this situation worse.
