We understand that right now you may find it difficult to talk about your diagnosis with friends and family. It’s important you have the space to discuss your thoughts in a safe, open place. With support available online, over the phone, or in person in one of our Centres, we’re here for you.

Looking for information?

When diagnosed with cancer the amount of information you have to take in can sometimes be overwhelming. Learning new words and meanings, finding out about a diagnosis and what the future may look like can be challenging.

We’re here to help you work through all of this, with clear information and a wide range of resources.

    “Meeting someone who understood how my husband felt and was able to also make him laugh despite the tracheostomy and only being able to communicate by writing, was a truly up-lifting experience.

    I cannot emphasise enough how much of a difference Big C made, thank goodness we found it.”
