Chief executive Vicky Thomson said co-production was vital to ensure people get better health and social care services that do the things people want them to do.

She said: “We are delighted to have been given the opportunity by Macmillan Cancer Support and NHS Lincolnshire West Clinical Commissioning Group to build a co-production group. We want to recruit people affected by cancer who are willing to work with us to positively shape services and use their personal lived-experience to influence change.”

In Lincolnshire, there are currently 23,500 people living with and beyond cancer.
