Travelling after cancer

If you want to take a holiday, or travel, following your treatment, you may find that there are difficulties caused by the fact that you have had cancer.

Some people find it very difficult to get travel insurance after treatment for cancer. We have a factsheet about travel insurance, which lists companies that may be able to provide travel insurance for people who have had cancer.
