Let's Talk About Cancer: Caring for Someone with Cancer

Tue 30th September 2025, 7pm - 9pm

The East of England Cancer Alliance Patient Partnership Group would like to invite you, and the members of your group to attend an online event.

The patient group have all experienced cancer themselves, or cared for someone with cancer, and are putting on a series of talks and information sessions designed to raise awareness and give people an opportunity to ask any questions of our expert speakers or experienced patients. We hope that you can join us.

Join us for an online event to learn more about caring for someone with cancer. We will hear from Louise Smith, Macmillan Deputy Lead Cancer Nurse, about the crucial role that carers play in supporting people going through cancer treatment. We will discuss the support available to carers and how important it is that they look after themselves as well as their loved ones. We will also hear from a member of the public about their experiences, and there will be an opportunity for you to ask questions.

Please email england.eoecancerallianceteam@nhs.net to register for a place and to be sent the link to join the event, or visit our website Let’s Talk about Cancer : East of England Cancer Alliance

This is one of a series of information events that we have held over the past year. If you would like to watch the recording of our previous Let’s Talk About Cancer events, you can find them on our website here.
