description

The Commissioner for this service is NHS Hastings and Rother Clinical Commissioning Group. The Commissioner is supported in this project by NHS South East CSU (SECSU) and its procurement partner NHS Commercial Solutions (NHSCS), which is managing this procurement.

In 2007 the NHS Cancer Reform Strategy published by the Department of Health emphasised the importance of raising awareness of cancer early warning signs and risk factors within the general population.

Cancer is one of the main contributors to inequalities in life expectancy in Hastings and Rother. Cancer incidence and prevalence rates are both significantly higher than England, with colorectal and lung cancers in particular showing significantly worse outcomes. The main cause of premature death is cancer, which is responsible for almost twice the number of deaths due to circulatory disease.

In order to address these inequalities, the Healthy Hastings and Rother programme recommended a focus on promoting awareness, early diagnosis and early treatment of cancer. In order to achieve this, the Action Plan proposed undertaking a cancer quality improvement programme and a Cancer Project Group was formed to lead this work.

As a result of this review, the Cancer Project Group now wishes to commission a local Cancer Awareness Measure for Hastings and Rother in order to provide a measure of cancer awareness in the CCG area.
