Cavendish Cancer Care's charitable objectives are to support anyone affected by cancer - this can be anyone with a diagnosis of cancer, living with cancer or family/friends/carers of people with cancer. We also offer support for people who have been bereaved by cancer. In addition we also undertake support work for people affected by Motor Neurone Disease. 

No, all our courses are free of charge! However we are a registered charity and 96% of the work we do is funded by donations from our supporters. If you can afford to then any donation to help us cover our costs would be appreciated. 

Your Cavendish Care Co-ordinator may have recommended some courses for you, although you are welcome to try any course you like the look of. If you are looking for a specific topic - for example help with sleep - then you could try that course first and then consider other courses that may help. All our courses can be seen in the course catalogue. Feel free to try as many as you like. If your Cavendish Care Co-ordinator has recommnded courses for you then you will find these by licking on 'My Profile'. 

With over 30 years experience of working alongside the NHS, we have created resources that offer practical tips and techniques to help with common problems related to people affected by cancer. Our courses are not designed to 'cure' an illness in any way and are not designed to replace any advice, programmes or treatment offered by your doctor or other health practitioner. 

All our therapists are qualified members of their professional organisation and are experienced in working with people affected by cancer. They are expected to adhere to Cavendish Cancer Care's clinical guidelines. 

 We understand the impact that a cancer diagnosis can have, so we encourage you to go at a pace that suits you. You have lifetime access to these resources so there's no rush to complete anything. There is no need to complete all the content - we encourage you to create your own 'wellbeing toolkit' by integrating a few practices and tips into your week. Small steps - taken slowly but consistently - make the biggest difference. 

The site is designed to be user friendly. By clicking the 'return home' button on the top right toolbar you can always return to the home page. All our courses can be found on the 'courses' page.
