About this Event
The Can You C Me? Merton Cancer Conference 2026 is a one-day event bringing together healthcare professionals, community organisations, researchers, and people with lived experience to explore how we can better address inequalities in cancer care and outcomes.
This year’s conference theme is:
“Advancing Equity: Innovations in Cancer Research and Treatment for BME Individuals.”
The day will focus on cancer awareness, support, and improving outcomes for Black and Asian minority ethnic communities. Through a range of presentations, talks, and interactive stalls, the conference will highlight innovative approaches, community-led solutions, and practical examples of what works in supporting people affected by cancer.
The conference aims to create a space where clinical knowledge, community insight, and lived experience come together. Attendees will have the opportunity to hear from a diverse range of speakers, connect with local and national organisations, and engage in meaningful conversations about equity, access, and innovation in cancer research, treatment, and support.
This event is open to healthcare professionals, community and voluntary sector organisations, partner agencies, and members of the local community.
