'I use dance to inform people about blood cancer'

Dr Juhee Pahuja was diagnosed with blood cancer when she was aged 29 while training to be a doctor.

Her determination carried her through and she now educates others about the illness and raises awareness of ethnic health disparities.

She's also taken her love of Bollywood and Bhangra music to empower people to take ownership of their health by connecting with her community and running a high-energy dance class.

Dr Pahuja has been nominated for a BBC Radio London Make a Difference award.
