We are here for you
- We are a charity based in Guildford, Surrey. Normally we cover Surrey, West Sussex, East Hampshire and South Middlesex areas. Have a look for on-line events as there is no geographical limit so we are happy to include anyone no matter where they are.
- We are here for you right from the shock of your first diagnosis of head or neck cancer and then, for as long as you need us. Our aim is to support you to regain your confidence by arranging talks by specialists, opportunities to socialise and talk with others who have an understanding of what you’re going through.
- “We” means a group of former patients and professionals who work in related fields – all volunteers who believe that access to good up to date knowledge via talks by professionals, and opportunities to meet in a safe environment with others with the same lived experience can help you on the road to recovery.
