Cancer Council Helpline supports patients


The diagnosis and treatment of cancer is a major life stress for patients, their family members and loved ones.

But did you know that Cancer Council Helpline can help them with coping?

If you or someone you know has been affected by cancer, please urge them to call the Helpline on 13 11 20 for information and support.

As many as one third of people with cancer experience ongoing significant psychosocial distress, and sometimes family members and loved ones experience even higher levels of distress than the patients themselves.
