Managing work alongside your cancer treatment, or the long-term effects of cancer, can be challenging. It's important that you find the right support, both at work and from the organisations that are available to support you.
Macmillan have a number of resources available on their website covering topics such as:
- benefits and financial support
- insurance
- managing money
- pensions
- work
- self-employment
- additional caring responsibilities
Support available
Macmillan and Citizens Advice
Our local Macmillan and Citizens Advice team can offer advice to all of our patients on work-related issues and any benefits or grants you may be entitled to. You can be referred by your clinical team, our cancer Information and Support Service (CISS), or you can self-refer.
Their opening hours are Monday to Friday, 09:00 - 16:00.
If you would like to discuss anything further, please contact CISS or your clinical team.
