The Make Sense campaign is a unique and exciting initiative by the European Head and Neck Society (EHNS), led by Prof. Wojciech Golusinski and Prof. C. René Leemans. The EHNS is a multidisciplinary body that brings medical experts together from many disciplines, including head and neck cancer specialists, oral and plastic surgeons, radiation therapists, medical oncologists, imaging specialists and pathologists. The society also brings together other stakeholders, including speech therapists, cancer nurses, psychologists, physiotherapists, dieticians, social workers, basic scientists and patient organisations involved in any aspect of head and neck cancer.
Through the Make Sense campaign, the EHNS aims to raise awareness of head and neck cancer symptoms and subsequently drive earlier presentation, diagnosis and referral.
With the 13th Annual Awareness Week (15–20 September 2025) fast approaching, we’re excited to share details about this year’s Campaign plans, along with brand-new materials for 2025, including resources for the Make Sense Run and updated social media assets.
A huge thank you to everyone who has already shared their planned activities for this year. As always, your creativity and dedication are inspiring—we can’t wait to see everything come to life!
