Join us on 14 October 2026 from 10am to 11am for the latest Health Horizons virtual event.
By 2040, it is expected that someone will be diagnosed with cancer every two minutes in England1.
As prevalence continues to rise, advances in diagnostics and treatment are transforming how cancer is detected and managed.
As the landscape continues to evolve, understanding what these changes mean for organisations has never been more important.
Employers have a unique opportunity to support earlier intervention, improve employee outcomes and develop more proactive approaches to prevention and care.
Approximately 160,000 people of working age receive a cancer diagnosis every year in the UK2.
Around 890,000 people of working age are living with cancer, and this is expected to increase to 1,150,000 by 20303. Yet research shows that 96% of organisations do not have a cancer-specific workplace policy.4
What to expect
In this live session, we’ll explore the trends reshaping cancer care and what they mean for employers.
We’ll share the latest developments in cancer screening and treatment, alongside how Bupa is evolving its cancer proposition through innovative prevention pathways, personalised support and practical strategies that can help organisations improve outcomes.
We’ll also take a closer look at prostate cancer, examining current challenges, opportunities for earlier detection and what employers can do to support their male workforce.
You’ll hear expert perspectives from a guest speaker at Prostate Cancer UK, alongside insights from Bupa’s Medical Director.
