About Cancer Alliances

Cancer Alliances bring together clinical and managerial leaders from different hospital trusts and other health and social care organisations to deliver the five year cancer strategy.

There are 21 Cancer Alliances across the country and these partnerships enable care to be more effectively planned across cancer pathways. Cancer Alliances look at the care and support patients should expect to receive from diagnosis to follow-up support across whole populations of patients, so they can address variations in care and implement best practice.

There are four cancer Alliances in London:

Using NHSE cancer transformation funding, the 4 Cancer Alliances in London have been working in partnership to focus on delivering improvements in personalised cancer care within London and for the national population that London serves. The reason for this is that more people than ever are living with and beyond cancer but many are living with the impacts of the disease or treatments. Our joined aim is to ensure that care and support is available for people to access as needed and that individuals living with or after cancer are confident and able to manage their health and wellbeing. As part of this aim, the Cancer Alliances in London are maintaining this website.
