Macmillan Aim
People do not always have access to the kind of information and support that is specific to their needs across the treatment pathway. They are lacking information and education to understand the impact of healthier lifestyles in reducing their risk of recurrence and preventing or managing consequences of treatment both in the immediate and long term. They also lack knowledge on how to manage aspects of their cancer when living with and recovering from cancer.
To provide education, information, support and signposting to enable people to understand how they can support themselves better. This includes access to local services to support them to have healthier lifestyles and to get information on the critical symptoms of recurrence or late effects of treatment. It also includes ensuring people know where to seek advice quickly. Health and Wellbeing support through events also connects people who may be experiencing the same issues, allowing them access to peer support and support groups.
