A hugely successful approach, first trialled in NHS Forth Valley, to provide dedicated support to patients with cancer throughout their treatment journey, is now set to be expanded across Scotland.

And the announcement was made by the Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Care, with NHS Forth Valley clearly seen as a centre of excellence in the field.

Following the success of 12 pilot projects, which have received more than £5million in funding, an additional £1m will be provided annually to expand the Single Point of Contact (SPOC) service, reaching more people with cancer than before.

An assessment by Healthcare Improvement Scotland found that over a 12-month period, SPOC services had more than 30,000 interactions with people affected by cancer.
