Cancer doesn't just affect your physical wellbeing, it can affect many different aspects of your life and the lives of those around you. It can be difficult to know what support is out there and where you can access it.

Here are some of the things we can help with:

• Money or housing worries
• Work or caring responsibilities
• Physical concerns
• Practical concerns
• Emotional concerns
• Other types of support

The service is here to support anyone, aged 16 and over, living in Ayrshire and Arran that has been affected by cancer. This includes people living with cancer and those affected by cancer (partners, carers, family members). We can meet with you to discuss what matters to you and help you get the right support. We can do this over the phone, online with a video call or face to face in the local community.

Our service is available at any stage of your cancer journey therefore if you feel you could benefit from our support please get in touch. If you would like to find out more about how we can help visit our website: https://www.nhsaaa.net/services/services-a-z/improving-the-cancer-journey-icj/
