Description

Yorkshire Cancer Research is dedicated to having the biggest impact on cancer in Yorkshire.
People in Yorkshire are more likely to get cancer and more likely to die from it than most other regions
in the country. We want to change this. Our goal is that at least 2000 fewer people in Yorkshire will die
from cancer every year by 2025.

We are seeking to commission an evaluation specialist to undertake 1) an evaluation of the
implementation of the programme using both qualitative and quantitative techniques (the programme
evaluation) and 2) a health economic evaluation for a programme of work that we are funding Leeds City
Council to deliver.
The aim of the programme is to increase cancer screening uptake across all three national programmes
(bowel, breast and cervical) in Leeds by working with local Primary Care Networks (PCNs), including GP
practices. This programme will support the citywide strategy as defined within the city Health and
Wellbeing strategy to improve the health of the poorest the fastest and to narrow the gap in screening
uptake between the most and least deprived GP practices in Leeds.
The purpose of the evaluation is to:
 Determine the effectiveness of the programme's interventions against our programme
outcomes (Appendix 1)
 Assess the cost effectiveness of the programme.
 Offer any recommendations that may subsequently improve the programme's delivery in the
future and improve the programme's costs effectiveness.
