The societal and economic costs of preventable cancers in the UK

Frontier Economics - 

The key findings estimate that the total cost of UK preventable cancer cases diagnosed in 2023 is £78 billion, equating to 3.5 per cent of annual GDP. For new cases diagnosed between 2023 to 2040, the total cost is £1.26 trillion. This equates to an annual cost of at least £61 billion in each of these years in real, discounted 2023£. This study was undertaken by Frontier Economics for the Guardian.
