À propos de cet audio

In this episode Ruth Bailey, Advanced Nurse Practitioner and Chair of the Royal College of Nursing Women's Health Forum, and Jessie Hewitson, Director of NeuroUniverse, dive into the realities autistic and physically disabled people face when accessing cervical screening and cancer care. We explore the barriers- from sensory challenges to communication hurdles- and share how inclusive healthcare guidance is helping to close the gap. Through open conversation and lived experience, Ruth and Jessie reveal how small, thoughtful adjustments can make a world of difference for people navigating the cancer pathway.

This episode aligns with Macmillan's strategic objectives to make cancer care fair for everyone and offer more personal support to people affected by cancer and other health conditions. Read more about Macmillan's strategy.
