Understanding the evidence

Macmillan is at the forefront of understanding the needs and experiences of people living with cancer. We do this by analysing public health data, evaluating services and healthcare economics, conducting surveys, funding academic research and working closely with people affected by cancer and our professionals and partners on the ground.
