This Wednesday 4th Feb sees one of the most important days in the medical awareness diary. The day in question is World Cancer Day.

This year social media is playing a big part in help raise awareness. One idea is to use the hashtag #KissCancerGoodbye and share a picture of you kissing a friend, family member, patient or pet. If you would share them on Twitter, Facebook or any other social media you use.

World Cancer Day have also produced a page cover for Facebook users. You can see it above. Please download and place it on your Facebook page even for just a few hours.

You might also be interested in joining our cancer community called CancerTalk. This is a space where all those in the cancer community can share experiences and provide support.

Thanks very much in advance.
