CANCER nurses will be giving tips on how to reduce the risk of cancer and spot signs early as part of awareness roadshows.
Teams will be at various locations around the city throughout May and June, with the first roadshow taking place today at The Forge Market.
The team will then visit Tesco Silverburn on Wednesday, May 12 to dish out advice.
Christine Campbell, Cancer Research UK senior cancer awareness nurse in Scotland said: “At a time when the world feels very different for many of us, it’s more important than ever that we continue to raise awareness of cancer.

“We are looking forward to talking to lots of people from across Glasgow about the steps they can take to help reduce their risk through changes like stopping smoking, reducing alcohol intake and keeping a healthy weight.
"Experts estimate around four in 10 cases of cancer could be prevented each year in the UK, largely through changes like these."
Visitors to the roadshow can visit from 10am until 4pm and organise repeat appointments if needed.
