MACMILLAN SUPPORT GROUP
Cancer can leave you facing many challenges, from coping with your cancer diagnosis, to finding the help you need or even planning a holiday after a diagnosis. At the local Macmillan Cancer Information and Support Centre, you’ll find a team of experts and trained volunteers on hand to answer your questions. They aim to give you a ‘time away’ from the cancer clinic, where you can find a listening ear and information on everything from local support groups to help for the financial problems cancer may create.
The West Lancs Information & Support Centre is at the Concourse Shopping Centre Skelmersdale WN8 6NL (ground floor next to the Citizens Advice)
Open Monday to Friday 1-4.30pm, (closed bank holidays)
Tel: 01695 656533 Email: soh-tr.macmillanwestlancs@nhs.net

You don’t need an appointment to speak to or visit the centre. And you’re welcome whether you have a cancer diagnosis, are worried about cancer or are visiting on behalf of a friend or relative.
Come along and see what the Macmillan Information team can offer which includes a personal assessment (Holistic Needs Assessment), access to the Move More programme, support groups, HOPE Course (Help Overcoming Problems Effectively) and much more.
We have our own support group here at Parbold on the 1st Wednesday of every month between 9.30am - 11.30am just drop in no appointment is necessary.
