WHAT ORCHID DOES
- To achieve our aim of making a lasting difference to men's lives in respect of the risk and outcomes of cancers that only affect men, we are attacking two relatively neglected areas, National Awareness Campaigns and Pioneering Research.
- How we work with the NHS
Orchid has been working with the National Health Service since we started in 1996. The NHS continues to be one of our most important partners. The majority of cancer patients are treated by the NHS. Our research programme works with the NHS to inform therapies used nationally and to ensure that patients are offered the chance to contribute to the understanding of cancers.
