If you or someone close to you has cancer, it may help to talk to a Cancer Support Visitor.

Cancer Support Visitors are carefully selected volunteers who are given specialised training so they can offer caring support for cancer patients and their families.

Support Visitors provide assistance by:

• making contact with people with cancer or their families
• providing companionship
• being available to talk
• allowing people they visit to share fears, anxieties or any issues of concern
• helping with practical problems
• providing support for caregivers

Contact the Wellington Division for more information.
