Practical ideas and tips for families, carers or patients who need to find out more about their cancer

Our Macmillan Cancer Information Centre has been set up to offer anyone access to high quality, up-to-date information at the time it suits them most. Staff and volunteers are happy to help.

A very important part of the work of the Centre is the emotional and practical support that it can give to anyone living with cancer. You can access the Centre by telephone, email or in person. You can ask about any practical, physical or emotional aspect of living with cancer. If an answer isn't available at the time, you can be sure that the staff and volunteers will find out what you need to know and get back in touch with you.
