The Macmillan Information and Support Centre is based in Area D, near to the main entrance and Costa Coffee. The service provides free, confidential information and support on the emotional, practical, financial, psychological and social impact of cancer. Anyone affected by cancer (patients, carers, relatives and friends) can drop into the centre to meet the staff and volunteers who will help you find the information and support you need. We also support other health care professionals providing them with resources. We run a variety of services and courses from the centre and in the community. We can offer face to face, telephone, email, text and online support.
