About us
At Wessex Cancer Support, we’re working towards a future where everyone in Wessex has access to personalised support that empowers them to live well with and beyond cancer.
Every year, around 20,000 people are diagnosed with cancer in the Wessex region. A diagnosis can be a shock and have a huge impact on an entire family. Wessex Cancer Support offers free and local emotional and wellbeing services to anyone affected by cancer, regardless of age, gender or type of cancer. Our professional team is committed to offering support for as long as you need it, away from a hospital environment.
Following HRH The Princess of Wales’ announcement that she is undergoing chemotherapy treatment for cancer, we are echoing her message that anyone facing cancer is not alone, and urge people to seek support if they are struggling. Read more here.
