Recognised annually on 9 April, this special day honours the extraordinary legacy of the late Dr Jimmie Holland, whose pioneering work transformed how we understand and support the psychosocial needs of people affected by cancer.

WPOD brings together healthcare professionals, organisations, patients, caregivers, and advocates from around the world to recognise that caring for mental and emotional wellbeing is a cornerstone of high-quality cancer care. Together, we can help ensure psychosocial care is integrated into cancer services everywhere.
