⚠️ Trust Issues Apology After Serious Failings in Breast Cancer Services

County Durham and Darlington NHS Trust has issued a formal apology after reviews revealed shocking failures within its breast cancer services. Senior leaders admitted that patients experienced missed cancers, delayed diagnoses and, in some cases, unnecessary procedures — care that fell far below the standard they deserved.

Interim Chair Alison Marshall and Chief Executive Steve Russell said: “We let our patients down, and for that we are profoundly sorry.”
They confirmed the Trust accepts all findings and is taking urgent action to strengthen leadership, improve governance, and rebuild patient trust.

The reports highlight repeated missed opportunities, a failure to act when concerns were raised, and a culture that did not keep patients safe. The Trust has committed to ensuring these failings never happen again.

If you or a loved one received care from the Durham & Darlington Breast Cancer Service and believe you may have been affected, you are not alone.
Our specialist medical negligence team at Thompson & Co. is already supporting many women and families impacted by these failings.

Earlier this year, County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust began a review into its breast surgery services. As part of this review, the Trust also commissioned an independent investigation of governance to understand whether there were missed opportunities to identify and act on any concer...
