Buttercrane Shopping Centre yesterday as part of Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month held an event to help inform the public about the disease, handing out leaflets on the diseases diagnosis and treatment.

Alex Ford, Chief Executive of Pancreatic Cancer UK said: “Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month presents a fantastic opportunity for people to come together across the UK and put a spotlight on pancreatic cancer.

One person is diagnosed with the disease in the UK every hour, and the disease has the lowest survival rate of all the 21 common cancers, so it really is crucial that we all find out more about it. On behalf of everyone at Pancreatic Cancer UK I would like to say a huge thanks to Buttercrane for helping us to spread the word about pancreatic cancer.”
