Our Mission

Our mission is to provide culturally sensitive support services and information for, however not exclusive to, Black African, Black Caribbean and other culturally diverse communities living with or affected by cancer, to enable people to build confidence, reslience and strength to overcome the challenges cancer brings.

We will enable, empower and educate people affected by cancer, their families and their carers:

Enable

We enable people affected by cancer to participate in the programme of regular activities and attend the support groups, thereby encouraging service users to socialise, increase confidence and reduce isolation.

Empower

We empower people to take control and better manage cancer to enhance their emotional, psychological and physical wellbeing, as well as their resilience.

Educate

We educate by delivering cancer awareness sessions highlighting the signs and symptoms of cancer, particularly those that disproportionately affect BME people.
