Parts of Rhyl are among the places in Wales with the highest risk of cancer
Parts of Rhyl are among the places in Wales with the highest risk of cancer
PEOPLE living in deprived parts of North Wales are around 20% more at risk from cancer compared to more affluent areas of North Wales, says an NHS report.
The report was published ahead of Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board's March board meeting this week.
It has been compiled to give board members a “strategic overview of cancer in North Wales” with the aim of looking to improve prevention, early detection and treatment, focusing on reviewing progress, services, and challenges.
But the report singles out Denbighshire and particularly Rhyl as having a higher risk of cancer due to the level of deprivation.
The report states: “There is a clear correlation between deprivation and increased cancer rates, and North Wales has some of the most deprived areas in Wales, primarily in Denbighshire.”
