WRAD is a day dedicated to uniting together to highlight the essential role of radiotherapy in treating cancer, relieving symptoms, and improving quality of life for patients.

The WRAD committee is made up of radiation and clinical oncology professionals, patients, and campaigners who are dedicated to launching this historic day; however, WRAD is a movement for everyone.

WRAD Objectives:

  • Raise awareness about the role of radiotherapy for cancer treatment. 

  • Highlight the need to improve access to radiotherapy globally. 

  • Educate healthcare professionals, patients, and policymakers about the importance of radiotherapy.

  • Recognise the importance of the radiotherapy professions, including the need for an adequate and skilled workforce.
