Support and Resources

If you, or someone in your life, has been diagnosed with cancer, there are many resources and supports available to help you.

The Irish Cancer Society provide advice for coping with a cancer diagnosis, and can connect you with experienced cancer nurses and other people affected by cancer in your community. 

They can also offer advice on practical matters such as organising transportation to and from treatments work, money and more.
