Information on Cancer

CancerHelp UK (www.cancerhelp.org.uk/) is the patient information website of Cancer Research UK.  There is a wealth of information on all aspects of cancer and cancer care, including detailed information on over 95% of the cancers diagnosed in the UK, treatments and issues associated with living with cancer.  There is also a unique database of information on cancer clinical trials.  All the information is written in plain English specifically for people affected by cancer.

Cancer Research UK also has a team of specialist cancer information nurses.  They are available to answer questions in confidence, for people personally affected by cancer.  They can be contacted via a question form on the site (www.cancerhelp.org.uk/question_form.asp) or by telephone (0808 800 4040, open from Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm.).
