We are happy for other organisations to refer to our website in their own website, and to create hypertext links as appropriate. However, we do not allow our information to be used in others' websites.

Cancerbackup has developed its publications for people affected by cancer, including over 60 booklets and nearly 200 factsheets, over almost 20 years. We go to great trouble to make sure the material is correct, up-to-date and suitable for its audience, and some 200 cancer specialists nationwide help us, free of charge, to achieve this. All our material is regularly reviewed and updated. If our material were used on other sites, we would lose control of it and no longer be able to ensure the same quality of information.
