Lung Cancer Europe is an umbrella organisation, which is the voice of people impacted by lung cancer at a European level.
LuCE advocates for European policies that will lead to improvements in early detection, treatment, and care for all those impacted by lung cancer.

Anne-Marie is pictured at the European Parliament last year, where she presented Lung Cancer Europe’s research on early diagnosis and screening. The event was hosted by Frances Fitzgerald MEP.
