Cancerbackup merged with Macmillan Cancer Support in April 2008. We provide the same high quality, expertly developed information about cancer, and now we can make it available to everyone who needs it. Our vision is for all people affected by cancer to have the information they want, when they want it - find out more on the main Macmillan website.
How we can help
We provide expert, up-to-date information in plain English online, in our publications and through our cancer information specialist nurses who can answer any question on any cancer, by phone, by email or in a local centre.
