The Committee and Trustees of OGCancerNI wish you and your families a healthy and peaceful Christmas.

May the spirit of love which comes at Christmas time fill your homes and your lives and linger there long after the tree is down and the lights are put away.

Our grateful thanks to everyone who volunteered and donated to help us during this exceptionally busy year.

If Christmas is the spirit of giving without the thought of getting, you are Christmas personified. We couldn’t do any of this without you.

Early Diagnosis is Key #CatchItEarly

Oesophageal cancer like many other cancers does not discriminate between age or sex and knowing and recognising the signs and symptoms are crucial to early diagnosis.  If you suffer from any of the following symptoms for longer than 3 weeks you should consult your doctor.

  • Persistent Indigestion
  • Difficulty swallowing or food sticking
  • Heartburn acid reflux
  • Hiccupping that wont go away
  • Unexplained weight loss.
