If you have an advanced cancer

If you have been diagnosed with advanced cancer, you may be having treatment to slow its growth or to control symptoms. There may also be other things to think about.

Advanced cancer

Some people may have a cancer that is advanced when they are first diagnosed. For others, the cancer may spread or come back after treatment.
Advance care planning

Advance care planning makes sure people know what your wishes are when it comes to your treatment and future care. We have advice to help you plan ahead.
Writing a will

A will makes sure that everything you leave when you die goes to the people you want it to.
End of life

We can help you find practical and emotional support at the end of life.
