Cancer Crisis in England
England recorded more than 373,000 cancer diagnoses in 2024—an average of 1,021 cases a day, up from 972 in 2023—while the share detected at stages one and two rose to 56.7%. Despite improvements in early detection, the National Health Service (NHS) missed its diagnosis and treatment targets: 78.6% of patients referred urgently received a diagnosis within 28 days, below the 80% target, and 71.9% began treatment within 62 days, short of the 85% target. Organisations and experts warned that patients are still being diagnosed at late stages and called for continued efforts to improve early diagnosis and reduce waiting times.
