The NHS wants to make sure patients have a good experience of care. Getting feedback from patients helps us improve and give patients what they need.
The National Cancer Patient Experience Survey (NCPES) asks cancer patients (16 years and older) about their experiences of care. Their feedback helps us to improve cancer services across England.
If you have treatment for cancer in the hospital as an inpatient or day-case and leave between April and June 2026, you may be invited to take part in the survey later in the year. If you are invited, you will get a letter with more information. Please take part and share your experiences of cancer care.
Your answers will help the NHS make cancer care better. The NHS and cancer charities use the results to find out what is working well and what needs to improve. National and local NHS teams can then work with patients to make changes.
