Cancer Support & Services<br />
Unsure about cancer support and advice services in your<br />
area? You’re not alone.<br />
New research has revealed that people in Wales aren’t aware<br />
of what support services are available to help them, their<br />
family or friends, after a cancer diagnosis. For example,<br />
over half of people in the region weren’t aware of emotional<br />
support services, such as talking therapy or support groups,<br />
while over three quarters also weren’t sure about the<br />
availability of practical support.<br />
However, a new resource is now available to help.<br />
Charity Dimbleby Cancer Care has recently launched the<br />
cancercaremap.org, an interactive directory to help those who<br />
need it find local support services at the click of a button.<br />
Developed over the past year, with the input of current and<br />
former cancer patients, carers and clinical staff, the onestop-shop<br />
features everything from NHS centres, charity<br />
and community led groups to local businesses offering<br />
special discounts.<br />
“Five years ago, a friend asked me to find cancer services<br />
for his wife. I realised very quickly that this was frighteningly<br />
difficult to do, and that there was no comprehensive<br />
resource to help me,” explains Jonathan Dimbleby chair<br />
of Dimbleby Cancer Care and creator of the map. “We<br />
wanted to create our own site to ensure that nobody facing<br />
cancer, goes without the care they need; all you would<br />
need is an internet connection and a postcode. The site<br />
has already grown tremendously over the past year, and<br />
we’re now incredibly excited to be officially launching the<br />
cancercaremap.org and helping raise awareness across the<br />
country of these much-needed services.”<br />
