Northern Cancer Voices
Have you or someone close to you been affected by cancer? Your voice matters and we want to hear it. We're inviting patients, carers, family members, and friends with lived experience of cancer to join our growing community. By sharing your insights and experience, you can help us to understand and identify the greatest needs and advocate for improvement throughout the cancer pathway. We also host peer support groups for anyone seeking a safe space to chat, have a cuppa and be surrounded by others who understand.

Our Mission is to improve the experience of Cancer Patients by increasing patient participation and strengthening the network of patient/carer groups in the North East and North Cumbria. We connect with patients, carers and others at engagement events and support groups and more. Our work is in partnership with the Northern Cancer Alliance, Northumbria NHS Foundation Trust and other trusts, as well as a wide range of voluntary and community based organisations.
