In response to Covid-19, we have launched new telephone and online services to ensure that we can continue supporting people whose lives have been turned upside down by cancer. This funding will help us to expand these new services and provide more families with the care they need during an incredibly difficult time. Specifically it will fund around 40 hours of individually-tailored therapy for cancer patients, their carers and their children, who may be struggling more than ever to understand and come to terms with what is happening.
Our support can reduce stress and anxiety, ease pain and nausea, and help people to eat, sleep and move better. By seeing whole families, we help them individually but we also help them to support each other. We help people move past the shock of diagnosis, take back control over what can be an incredibly overwhelming situation and live well, during and long after cancer treatment.
