At Tenovus Cancer Care we pride ourselves on our close relationship with healthcare professionals and Health Boards. Our range of support services complement and work alongside those delivered by the NHS, to help make sure every cancer patient has access to the care and support they need.
Refer a patient to us
If you have a patient you would like to refer to our services, simply call our free Support Line on 0808 808 1010.
Our specialist support services for people affected by cancer include:
- Welfare Benefits advice. Support with practical matters like help with NHS costs, blue badges and home adaptations
- Cancer Callback – a proactive series of calls from our nurses for patients going through treatment to complement their existing support
- SACT and lymphoedema care on our Mobile Support Units (only available in certain Health Board areas for certain treatment types)
- Group support through singing with our Sing with Us choirs for anyone affected by cancer
- A free Will writing service for cancer patients to write or update their Will for free. It is quick and easy to do and gives patients peace of mind, knowing that their wishes will be carried out after they’re gone
Patient research opportunities
We’re committed to putting the needs of people affected by cancer at the heart of everything we do. That’s why we conduct and support research which involves patients, carers and healthcare professionals.
Getting involved with research is a way for cancer patients and their loved ones to feel empowered, as well as help shape the future of cancer treatment and care for others. See our latest opportunities for people affected by cancer to get involved.
Resources
We have a range of resources which may be useful for yourself or colleagues, with a particular focus on cancer prevention.
Fundraising
We’re proud that healthcare professionals from across the NHS choose to support Tenovus Cancer Care through fundraising. As well as key campaigns like our Jolly Jumper Day at Christmas, many people opt to take part in a challenge event like a run, walk or trek, or hold fundraising coffee mornings or concerts.
