Stark health warning demands attention

Proper planning is crucial in any well-ordered society.

In the midst of all our current economic problems we have now a frightening health warning from the World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) that cancer cases are predicted to rocket in Ireland in the coming years.

Instances of the disease are expected to go up by 72% by the year 2030. The predicted rise is based on the 19,454 cases in 2008, rising to a projected 33,416 cases in 2030.
