The Invisible Cancer Podcast raises awareness of neuroendocrine cancer, a cancer most people have never heard of, and this lack of awareness can affect diagnosis, treatment, and care. Through real-life stories, expert insights, and practical advice, we explore the challenges patients face, from initial diagnosis to management, including the impact on mental health and ongoing follow-up.


Hosted by Lisa Walker and produced by Neuroendocrine Cancer UK, this podcast shines a light on neuroendocrine and other often-overlooked cancers, offering information, support, and connection to anyone affected.

    Dipping for Dave: Raising Awareness of Neuroendocrine Cancer
    Sep 30 2025

    In this episode of the Not Just NE Cancer podcast, Cathy speaks to Ruth, the incredible fundraiser and founder behind 'Daily Dip 4 Dave'.

    Since October 2023, Ruth has taken a cold-water dip every single day, inspired by her husband, Dave, who is living with neuroendocrine cancer.

    Through stormy weather, freezing temperatures and exhaustion, she’s stayed committed, raising awareness and vital funds for Neuroendocrine Cancer UK, one freezing plunge at a time.

    This October marks 2 years and to celebrate, we’re making a splash.

    Join us on Saturday 11th October 2025 for the National Daily Dip 4 Dave Day.
    One day. Hundreds of dips. Wherever you are, however you do it, just dip!

    For Ruth. For Dave. For everyone affected by neuroendocrine cancer.

    If you haven't already heard of Ruth and Dave's story, this episode shines a light on why 'Daily Dip 4 Dave' started, including Ruth's most memorable dips!

This podcast has really helped me not feel so alone, hearing real voices talking about real experiences, really makes this all more personal. I have found Neuroendocrine Cancer UK invaluable for my journey, and this new podcast has really made it extra special for me. I have used the website to point friends and family for information, the Facebook page for support and advice, the call a nurse to understand more for what my personal journey is, and now this post cast to feel connected to real people, which I have also been able to point in the direction of listening to for understanding.

Thanks so much, please do continue these valuable pod casts. Thank you to all the people who took part in the post casts too. I needed this, so I’m sure lots of other people will too, even if they don’t write reviews. Also thanks for this being included as part of my Audible with no extra charge!

You are not alone!
