We provide help in form of money to pay for prescriptions for medications which enable them to carry on with treatment or recover between or after treatment cycles
Support with diagnostic imaging , procedures and blood test expenses
We source for unwanted ostomy supplies from overseas ostomy organisations and individual donors and hand them out to patients who cannot afford them
We provide free counselling to patients and families with high suspicion of cancer or following a cancer diagnosis .
We provide free counselling to patients and families with high suspicion of cancer , following a cancer diagnosis , psychological support during and post treatment and as part of end of life care .
Patients with cancer want and benefit from information, especially when making treatment decisions. Education helps patients and their families to understand diagnosis , manage side effects and improves adherence.
