Current opportunities to get involved
Early Diagnosis Pancreatic Programme patient and public voice representative
We are looking for a new patient and public voice representative to join our expert advisory group.
We are particularly interested in applications from people who have experience of pancreatic cancer, either personally, or who have supported a close family member or friend with the disease. We would also be happy to hear from people who have experience of hepato-pancreato-biliary (HPB) cancer, as we appreciate pancreatic cancer is quite rare.
The expert advisory group brings together professionals from diverse backgrounds—including pancreatic cancer charities, GPs, hospital consultants, and academic researchers—to support the programme team with expert guidance on designing pilot programmes, improving communication, enhancing delivery, and generating ideas to improve patient care. The group meets formally for one hour every two months, and members may also be contacted between meetings for input on specific issues.
