Скачать или смотреть Living with Stage 4 Cancer: How Ameena is Breaking Taboos in her Community

What happens when cancer isn’t talked about? When language barriers, cultural taboos, and a lack of support creates silence and isolation?

This is Ameena’s story. Diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer, she’s breaking down barriers in her community, supporting others through a powerful cancer support group, and navigating life with cancer alongside her loving husband.

But stories like Ameena’s highlight that right now, cancer care in the UK isn’t fair. Who you are and where you live can determine how fast you’re diagnosed, the treatment you receive, and the care you get. That’s not good enough.

At Macmillan, we believe every person with cancer deserves the best care to meet their unique needs, whoever and wherever they are.

That’s why we’re doing whatever it takes to help tackle cancer inequalities and support communities who’ve too often been left behind.
