Organisation description: Can-Survive UK provides culturally sensitive support and information for people with cancer, their familiesand carers. We enables people affected by cancer to participate in the programme of regular activities and attend the support groups, thereby encouraging service users to socialise, increase confidence and reduce isolation. We empower people to take control and better manage cancer to enhance their emotional, psychological and physical wellbeing, as well as their resilience. We educate by delivering cancer awareness sessions highlighting the signs and symptoms of cancer, particularly those that disproportionately affect NME people. At Can-Survive UK we recognise that everyone is an individual, that's why we aim to provide you with support that is person centred, culturally sensitive - whatever your background or need.
