💜💚 Introducing Cancer Connect 💚💜

Disability Solutions and Macmillan Cancer Support is proud to introduce Cancer Connect, our brand new project supporting disabled people who are affected by cancer.

A cancer diagnosis can bring additional challenges when you are already living with a disability or long-term health condition. Cancer Connect provides free, personalised support to help people navigate these challenges and ensure their cancer care reflects their individual needs.

We can support with:
🤝 A dedicated Care Connect Worker
💬 Understanding your diagnosis and communicating with healthcare professionals
❤️ Emotional and practical support
🏠 Aids, equipment, transport and home adaptations
🌱 Community groups, wellbeing activities and local services
📋 Advocacy and reasonable adjustments
💷 Benefits, grants and financial guidance

Our aim is to help people feel heard, understood and supported throughout their cancer journey.
