About this cause

We support people in Huntingdonshire who are managing a cancer diagnosis to take back control of their lives, become independent and play a full part in the management of their health. We believe everyone wants to return to independence whether recovering from or living with cancer. Our interventions are all aimed at helping people take control particularly in the areas of activity, nutrition and emotional well-being. We do this through educational inputs and support activities all aimed at giving people the tools to help themselves. We work in partnership with an NHS funded community nursing team which takes cancer care to people at home, in their workplace, or wherever works best for them.

How this cause brings people in the community together

We work across Huntingdonshire. An essential part of the recovery process after cancer comes from speaking to others who are also managing that diagnosis. However those conversations work best when there is a beneficial activity to focus on. We work across all cancer types and this necessarily includes those rare cancers which can leave people feeling very alone. We help people to help each other.
