World Cancer Day 2023

February 4th marks World Cancer Day 2023, a global uniting initiative led by the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC), to raise worldwide awareness and reimagine a world where millions of preventable cancer deaths are saved. The UICC’s vision is for equitable access to life-saving cancer treatment and care for all – no matter who you are or where you live.

This year’s World Cancer Day theme, ‘Close the Care Gap’, recognises the inequities in cancer care around the globe and strives to promote research, improve patient services, raise awareness and mobilise the global community to make progress against cancer.

Big Health x Macmillan Cancer Support

In partnership with Macmillan Cancer Support, we’re working to improve the quality of life of people living with and beyond cancer in the UK through instant access to mental health support, at no cost to them.

Like Macmillan and the UICC, we believe that cancer care must adapt and evolve. Our partnership enables cancer patients to access safe and effective always-available digital solutions for insomnia and anxiety through the use of our clinically proven treatments, Sleepio and Daylight.

Day or night, at home or in hospital, Macmillan and Big Health can provide trusted mental health support, immediately accessible with no waiting lists. Together, we are making clinically proven treatments for poor sleep and anxiety available for anyone living with and beyond cancer in the UK.
