Cancer Information and Support

Cancer information session

The cancer information session is a 45-minute presentation and conversation that offers advice and information about different types of cancers and treatments. We also talk about money, benefits you might get, and other support available locally.

Cancer Support Worker

Cancer Support Workers (CSWs) are part of the cancer support team and work alongside Clinical Nurse Specialists, Consultants, and other health professionals. They support people who have been given a cancer diagnosis, those who are currently going through treatment, as well as people who are living with or beyond cancer. Cancer Support Workers can support with non-medical needs.
