Finding trusted support & resources
When you need reliable information or someone to talk to, it helps to know where to look. Prefer recognised, official organisations.
Where to find trustworthy information
- Your doctor or national health service — the first and best source for your situation.
- Recognised cancer organisations and charities in your country, which often provide free guides and helplines.
- The World Health Organization (WHO) for general, global health information.
Emotional support
A cancer concern affects feelings as well as health. Many cancer charities run free helplines and support communities, and your care team can refer you to counselling. You do not have to manage it alone.
We deliberately avoid naming specific providers to keep this guidance current and unbiased. Search for the official cancer organisation or health service in your own country, and be cautious of unofficial sites making strong claims.
