World Cancer Day takes place every year on February 4th and is an initiative under which the world comes together to raise the profile of cancer in a positive and inspiring way.

This year’s theme “Close the Care Gap”, recognizes inequities in health that exist for many populations. It raises awareness about the lack of equity in cancer care and prompts action at every level to break down the barriers that exist for many people in accessing services and receiving the care they need.

This World Cancer Day, we recognize the power of working together. Every single one of us has the ability to make a difference, large or small, and together we can make real progress in reducing the global impact of cancer.

This World Cancer Day, what will you do to close the gap in cancer care?
