We understand what it is like to have cancer and can give you support
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. We are here to help.

Who we are

Guernsey Cancer Support provides an opportunity to spend time with people who share or understand your experience. It’s an opportunity for you to talk about your deepest concerns, and know they will be met with acceptance and understanding.
About us
Support

Support group

The group offers support to people from any of the Islands in the Bailiwick and to anyone affected by cancer whether as a patient, carer or family member. The members of the group have all experienced having cancer themselves or are the family/friends who have cared for someone with cancer.
What people say
"Cancer can be a scary and lonely time. I wasn't given much information about Guernsey based groups following my diagnosis. However, following a recommendation from a friend, I decided to go along to a GCS meeting. I haven't looked back since. Everyone at GCS is so friendly and patient. I'm so glad I found this support group."
"Finding others going through what you are also experiencing is such a relief. GCS members are so friendly and knowledgeable. They were able to answer questions that I had about cancer and cancer treatment and made me feel more confident about what I could do to support my wife and her cancer journey."
"The GCS group was such a positive experience, not only for my husband who had the cancer diagnosis, but for myself too. I have made some lifelong friends and still attend the group even though my husband sadly passed away."
