Who we are
About Us
Touched by Cancer is a local support group for anyone whose life has been affected by cancer — whether you're a patient, survivor, carer, family member or friend. We meet regularly for coffee mornings and events in a relaxed, friendly setting. We've applied for charity status and are currently awaiting registration.
Cancer Patients
You are not alone
Whether you've recently been diagnosed, are undergoing treatment, or are adjusting to life afterwards — having somewhere you feel understood can make a real difference.

Supporting someone takes strength
Cancer affects everyone around it. Partners, family members and carers carry their own weight — and deserve somewhere they can be heard too.
