Yes to Life Show

The Yes to Life Show is presented by Robin Daly, Founder and Chairman of the UK registered charity Yes to Life. Robin set up Yes to Life nearly two decades ago, following the experience of supporting his youngest daughter Bryony through cancer three times. The extraordinary difficulties he found that faced people in finding and obtaining the help they wanted, spurred him into creating a charity to make a difference to this tragic predicament. Although very familiar with the territory, Robin is not a canc

The Yes to Life Show is all about cancer. As we rapidly approach the point where half of us will get cancer, there are some pretty stark questions facing us that the show attempts to throw light on:

  • What are we doing wrong?
  • Why has the colossal investment in research produced so few answers?
  • What are we missing?
  • And crucially to all the above – What is cancer?

In pursuing these questions, Robin Daly talks to a fascinating mix of scientists, oncologists, practitioners and extraordinary survivors who have exceeded all expectations by thinking outside of ‘the box’. Questions are asked about that box, what its assumptions are, what is in there and why, and what the strengths and weaknesses of ‘in the box’ approaches are. The show also casts a wide net outside ‘the box’, looking at any approaches that could be of benefit to those with cancer. And the question of the merits of Integrative Medicine, a judicious combination of all potentially useful  approaches that dispenses with the box altogether in the interests of the patient, features prominently.
