News > Sourcing health information
NHS Choices has launched a new website offering young people (19-24 years) recently diagnosed with cancer an informed choice in their place of care. It aims to highlight the availability of choice between treatment in an adult cancer unit, or in one of 13 principal treatment centres in England that provide age-appropriate cancer services.
The site has been developed with young people who have been diagnosed with cancer and were faced with care choices. The site contains information about cancer, personal stories from young adults with cancer and information about the choices available for treatment centres.
