Cancer is no longer a death sentence. Across Europe, around 20 million people are now living beyond their disease. But their efforts to return to normal life are severely hampered by a particularly unjust form of financial discrimination.

Despite robust scientific evidence that they are cured, cancer survivors across Europe routinely face discrimination in accessing financial services and products like loans, mortgages, and travel and health insurance.
