Local man Phil defies the odds and survives pancreatic cancer
It's currently Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month and tomorrow, Thursday 18th November is World Pancreatic Cancer Day.
We are also looking for your help in sharing the story attached of local man Phil, who has defied the harrowing odds of pancreatic cancer sufferers to become a 5-year survivor.
When we started our awareness month in 2010, the 5-year survival rate was just 3%. Now, we are at almost 8% - proving that awareness raising does work!
I would love it if you'd be able to support us and share Phil's story tomorrow and / or news of the Welsh landmarks turning purple for World Pancreatic Cancer Day.
