ONCE again the number of two-year waits for treatment on the NHS in Wales has risen and a report has found that where you live is proving a postcode lottery when it comes to cancer rates.
-
People living in the most deprived areas continue to face significantly higher rates of cancer than those in more affluent communities, according to new figures from the Welsh Cancer Intelligence and Surveillance Unit (WCISU) at Public Health Wales.
The Cancer Incidence in Wales 2002-22 report shows that in 2022 the cancer incidence rate was 20% higher among the most deprived fifth of the population compared with the least deprived fifth - a disparity that has remained largely unchanged since 2006.
