The group will hold a
public meeting the following week, on Friday, June

people on the outcome. It is envisaged that this
will be the first of several meetings CCC(NW) will
hold throughout the county in the coming months.
“The purpose of the meetings will be to give people
and the media the opportunity to be updated on the
progression of our work of the past four years in
securing breast services; screening services and
radiation services, etc for the Donegal/North West
Region," said CCC(NW) spokesperson Noelle Duddy.
“CCC(NW)'s only aim is for the people of the North
West to be in receipt of equitable, |
accessible, cancer services as near to home as is
safely possible that will be of a standard not less
than best practice with best outcome for the
patient.
"We invite the Donegal public to hear our story, our
progress and achievements. All are very welcome.” |
