The Swallows Head and Neck Cancer Group is a UK-based charity supporting all people affected by head and neck cancers: patients, caregivers, friends, or relatives. We provide 24/7 support to every person affected by head and neck cancer. Each month we hold several face-to-face Support Groups across the UK, along with a monthly virtual meeting which can be accessed across the globe. Meetings give both patients, caregivers the opportunity to discuss their issues, seek new ideas and help problem solve what they are going through. Each November, we host an International Head & Neck Cancer Conference where we bring together those affected by head and neck cancer, health professionals and inspirational speakers. Given the importance of early diagnosis, we offer a full range of information leaflets, posters, and books to help educate and inform people about head and neck cancer, including how to avoid such cancers, and how to look for warning signs that allow for early diagnosis and treatment.
