Getting Support
Making sure you have the right support is invaluable and can make things easier during an incredibly stressful time. Talk to your friends and family and ask for help if you need it, they will want to be there for you but may not know what to say or do. There are also many peer-to-peer support groups available online (including our own GI Cancer Care Facebook groups) where you can chat with people in the same situation and find helpful advice and support.
All donations are greatly appreciated and help us to support the thousands of younger people affected by GI cancer in Scotland. You can donate to us via our online donation form (one-off or monthly), or cheques can be posted to us directly at GI Cancer Care, 16 Stanton Marches, Haddington, EH41 3FB.
