About The Charity

Whether you’re on the journey now, a survivor, family or a carer, then Touched by Cancer is for you. In a warm and welcoming, safe space you can chat, share, listen and support each other.

Touched By Cancer is awaiting Charity approval — with application submitted to the UK Charity Commission.

Our Focus

We felt the areas of cancer research and cancer prevention are already delivered well by other charities and public bodies. As a charity with limited resources, we do not want to duplicate work that is already being delivered. We want to focus on where we can make the most impact.

Our primary purpose is to provide a safe, warm and welcoming support hub for anyone who is on a cancer journey, past and present. This also includes their spouses, partners and carers who we feel don’t always receive the emotional support that is needed. A place to be heard.

Professional Support

We decided as we are not medically qualified to give medical advice, that we would network with NHS and Private agencies to come into our monthly meeting as guest speakers to provide information and advice as to what is on offer.
