There are nearly 400,000 cancer cases diagnosed in the UK each year, but survival rates are improving and have doubled in the last half-century
Someone is told they have cancer every two minutes in the UK, and Buckingham Palace have disclosed that King Charles is among the thousands who have begun 2024 with a diagnosis.
The discovery came during Charles’s recent treatment for a benign prostate enlargement, when a “separate issue of concern” was noted. Although Buckingham Palace has not revealed what form of cancer the king has been diagnosed with, it is understood not to be prostate cancer.
