At Melanoma UK, we believe it is vital to proactively use evidence in our advocacy work.
An increasing proportion of patients are highly sophisticated in their research and understanding of evidence, and we are matching this movement. Examples include participation in health technology appraisal meetings (NICE and SMC), presenting clinically validated information on our website, authoring publications from our Melanoma UK digital registry, engaging with our own panel of medical experts, and using our registry data to support patient-centric initiatives, such as targeting travel grants where they are most needed.
Ultimately, all these initiatives are designed to benefit and support patients, which has been Melanoma UK's mission since its foundation.
At Melanoma UK it is our challenge and desire to give patients and their families much needed support during the very difficult times faced upon diagnosis. Read more
