Being told you have cancer, or that your cancer has returned, can leave you feeling shocked, upset and very isolated. There are so many questions to be answered and so many feelings to deal with.
Macmillan supports over 900 independent cancer support groups and organisations across the UK, giving you an opportunity to talk to people who understand what you're going through.
You can search by selecting your county to see all the groups in your area, or narrow your search by using a town or specific keywords, eg: 'breast', 'bowel' or 'complementary therapy'. Please note: postcodes will not return a search.

The information in this online directory is provided by the groups and organisations themselves. They are all independent of Macmillan so we are unable to guarantee the level of support they offer or take responsibility for the information they provide.
How can a cancer support group help you?|
Macmillan is here to help you develop your group, with funding, information, guidance and training. Find out how you can make the most of it.|
Make sure your group is registered with us, so it will appear in our online directory|.
If you're thinking about setting up your own group Macmillan can help, by providing grants and training, and offering support as your group grows. Find out more on setting up a group.|
Do you have big plans for your group but need the money to make them happen? Macmillan provides financial assistance to support groups by offering grants for development, training and conferences, and even starting up costs. Find out more.|
