Cancer information and support is crucial
A cancer diagnosis can turn a person’s life upside down. Many people have questions and fears, but they often do not know where to turn for the support they need. We know that the provision of specialist information and support can have a significant impact on a person’s quality of life, but too many people are missing out on this support.
Macmillan Cancer Support Centres provide information and support on a wide variety of issues, ranging from coping with treatment and care, to getting financial support. They give people living with and affected by cancer the opportunity.
Your support could help us to address the gaps in service provision, create better access to services, and increase awareness of the support available.

About the Centres
This year work is beginning to create 3 new Macmillan Cancer Support Centres in York, Stockport and Ashford in Surrey.
The new centres will transform the experience and wellbeing for thousands of people living with cancer, with services including:
- welfare benefits advice and signposting to other financial support services
- wellbeing and support service offered virtually and in-person, including complementary therapies such as massage and aromatherapy
- emotional and psychological support including counselling
- support groups with a dedicated space to meet
- community outreach to provide support to underserved communities.
