Online cancer support

All the online support you need. Cancer information, courses and community.

Can online support really help me? 

At Wessex Cancer Support, we believe that no one should face cancer feeling isolated or uninformed. Our free, online support services are designed to empower you with knowledge about cancer prevention, treatment options and coping strategies. They also provide a safe space to hear from healthcare professionals and people who have lived through similar experiences. This combination of practical information and emotional reassurance can ease anxiety, build confidence and help you feel more in control of your journey.

Engaging with online cancer support can be a vital lifeline for anyone affected by cancer, whether personally or through supporting a loved one.  For some, it can be difficult to attend in-person sessions due to health, mobility or travel challenges. Our online support helps break down these barriers, allowing you to learn, ask questions and connect with others at your own pace and on your own terms.

Whether you’re newly diagnosed, in treatment or supporting someone else, engaging with online cancer support ensures you’re never alone. It’s a flexible, accessible way to stay informed, connected, and supported, every step of the way.

Just like our in-person services, this is all completely free and designed just for you. If you’d like to have a chat about what support might be best for you, simply email our team at careteam@wessexcancer.org.uk and they will be in touch to arrange a time and date that works for you.

Please note that not every type of activity is offered in all our centres, and some are available online, so please visit our cancer support centres to explore what’s near you.
