Survey of ACC Patient Pathways to Diagnosis
If you have or have had adrenocortical cancer and live in the UK, then you can help to improve the patient pathway to diagnosis and treatment! Please take 5-10 minutes to complete a new survey (developed collaboratively between ACC Support UK and the Clinical Committee of the Society for Endocrinology) to help us gain a snapshot of the current patient pathway for people diagnosed with adrenocortical cancer in the NHS. Answers will be used to help improve this pathway for the future.
Thank you for your help
Elliot Dallen Research Award for ACC
The Elliot Dallen Trust has committed £10,000 annually for the next three years, to help fund research into adrenocortical cancer. The Elliot Dallen Trust was set up by the family and friends of the late Elliot Dallen, who had ACC. The Research Awards are administered through AMEND, our umbrella charity and the 2022 round deadline is 31 August, 2022. We thank the Trust for their commitment to ACC research.
