Community Action Norfolk (CAN) are working with Macmillan Cancer Support to deliver a 3-year project, ‘Talking About Cancer Together’, covering the whole of Norfolk. The project will work with the Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise (VCSE) sector and local communities to increase awareness of support and services available, both locally and nationally, to those affected by cancer. It will provide access to a range of cancer related information, resources and support for the VCSE sector, their clients/service users and local communities regarding cancer services and related support, from a range of local and national providers.
“We are very excited by this partnership with Macmillan Cancer Support which will provide access to information and valuable support for individuals, communities and organisations across Norfolk. Our Project Officer, Kate, comes with a huge range of knowledge and enthusiasm and will provide a focal point for information for anyone who needs it. We believe this project is not only vital but timely and have already seen enormous interest from organisations across Norfolk. I look forward to seeing this grow and welcome the fact that we are working with Community Action Suffolk to develop a joint approach which will support both counties equally." From CAN's CEO.
