Hello, thank you for your comment. Recommending screening programmes is a complicated decision that needs careful consideration because while they can save lives, they can also cause harm to some people. The balance between the benefits and harms must be right for a population screening programme to be recommended. To make sure screening does more good than harm it’s offered to set groups, often by age and gender. For all cancer screening programmes there is a ‘target population’. This will be the group where the benefits of screening outweigh the harms. The target population is different for different screening programmes, but no screening programme is for everyone. Prostate screening can miss some aggressive prostate cancers, while spotting others that don’t need treatment. Rolling out widespread screening now could mean a large number of men receive invasive, unnecessary tests and treatment and cause stress and anxiety without any health benefit. That’s why it’s important to find better ways to spot aggressive prostate cancer for all men and we’re researching new ways to detect and diagnose the disease.

@SU2CUK my partner had breast cancer so i understand the need for women to get checked. I have had the poo sample check done twice. What i dont get is this seems mainly for women - what about prostate cancer?

@mizz_laney Hi there, unfortunately, due to the large number of submissions, we are unable to deliver/return the submitted tribute lanterns to every contributor. All of the lanterns will be stored safely by CRUK for the foreseeable future.

@SU2CUK Hi do you know what happens with the lanterns once the display is done? Thanks

@Twinkle37897241 @AlexHorne @hornesection I JUST got it out of my head... now it's back 🫠

Anyone else randomly singing this line throughout today? #howlonghasthisbeengoingon @AlexHorne @SU2CUK @hornesection

@Sez0177 Thank you so much for your support, Sarah. Congratulations on 15 years 🧡

@SU2CUK 15 years NED from breast cancer at 33, i have annual screening which is so important. also volunteered as part of cancer awareness programm and early detection really does save lives. Get checked today to enjoy tomorrow

Thank you to our patron, His Majesty The King for sharing his cancer experience and championing Stand Up To Cancer. Spotting cancer early can make a real difference in providing the best chance for successful treatment and to save lives. If you notice anything unusual for you, talk to your GP.

@DianaJohnsonMP @NHS Thank you, Diana, for sharing your expereince! We couldn't agree more and are so pleased you made a full recovery.

Early detection saves lives. At my first mamogramne appointment age 50, early breast cancer was found and because of that I went on to get treatment quickly and recover. Always take up screening appointments @SU2CUK @NHS

@MarkYoung23 Thank you for sharing your story Mark, we are sending our best wishes to you and your family this Christmas - if you ever need to chat to others affected by cancer, our Cancer Chat is here for you: cancerchat.cancerresearchuk.org 🧡

This time last year we were preparing for a family Christmas, what we didn’t know at the time was that it would be my mum’s last. 3 weeks after Christmas a test showed she had bowel cancer & in March she passed away. Please don’t wait,take any screening that you’re eligible for.

@LynnLeslie18 Thank you for tuning in Lynn 🧡

@SU2CUK Watched this live tonight when it was on. Just heartbreaking 💔

After being diagnosed with a rare and fast-growing cancer called glioblastoma, Matthew was determined to stay positive. He proposed to his girlfriend, Carrie, and soon after they got married. Just six weeks later, Matthew died. Carrie describes their wedding day as a day full of ‘positive love’. Matthew and Carrie stayed up and enjoyed the celebrations with family and friends until two in the morning. We Stand Up To Cancer for Matthew and Carrie🧡 #StandUpToCancer #CancerStory

A special message from The King, in support of Stand Up To Cancer. 🧡 As part of this year’s @SU2CUK campaign, @CR_UK and @Channel4, with support from the @NHS, have launched a nationwide Screening Checker to help people find out which cancer screening programmes they are eligible for and seek helpful advice on the process. 🔗 screeningchecker.co.uk

@MavrommatisDIM @RoyalFamily @CR_UK @Channel4 @NHS That's very kind, thank you.

@RoyalFamily @SU2CUK @CR_UK @Channel4 @NHS I would like to express my deepest gratitude for the invaluable work carried out by Stand Up To Cancer. The efforts of your organization are truly inspiring, and I am deeply moved by the commitment and passion you dedicate to such an important cause.

@HMSSutherland @RoyalFamily @CR_UK Well said!

Amazing news from His Majesty King Charles III, not only regarding his own cancer treatment but of how the screening and support availble improves each year. Early diagnosis and speedy intervention is key, remember, if in doubt, get it checked out! @RoyalFamily @CR_UK @SU2CUK

@Outoftheparkboy @RoyalFamily @CR_UK @Channel4 @NHS Couldn't agree more, Keith.

@RoyalFamily @SU2CUK @CR_UK @Channel4 @NHS Thank you for being so public on what is a very personal and private experience. ❤️ If this can save just one life, then it's made all the difference.

@Channel4 So beautiful 🥹🧡

@badlymadly Thank you for sharing your story Jayne 🧡

11 years ago today, the day before my birthday. I had my 2nd surgery for breast cancer. How fast those years have gone. I had good results because of early detection. #StandUpToCancer #cancerscreening
