Making sure you comply with the law on advertising and the treatment of cancer
As a CNHC registrant, you may be practising therapies which are used by those receiving treatment for cancer. It is therefore imperative that you familiarise yourself with the provisions of the Cancer Act 1939 and take care to ensure that your advertising complies with the law.
We have recently updated our Guidance on the Cancer Act 1939 with details of information published by Cancer Research UK and advise our registrants to read it carefully.
