Exploring the Unmet Needs of Irish Cancer Patients from Underserved Communities - EuCan
Phase 1: Steering Group Recruitment
The EuCan study is funded by the Irish Cancer Society and aims to explore the unmet needs of Irish cancer patients from underserved communities. The study will explore the enablers of timely access to cancer diagnosis, treatment, and care, along the barriers that people from underserved communities face when seeking timely cancer diagnosis, treatment, and care. The project is currently in its first phase of recruitment, and is seeking people who have, or have previously had, a cancer diagnosis from underserved communities to join our steering group.
Who can participate?
We are seeking participation from:
• Individuals over the age of 65
• Individuals with a physical disability
• Individuals with an intellectual disability.
Role of the Steering Group
The Steering Group will play an important role in shaping the the EuCan study. They will participate in the development of accessible literature; help ensure the outputs of the study are accessible and respectful and reflect and communicate the interests of people from underserved communities.
