Women Against Lung Cancer Patient Care Network

Women Against Lung Cancer Patient Care Network provides an information and support network for the 40,000 people throughout the UK who are diagnosed with lung cancer each year.

A free lung cancer telephone helpline enables callers to access details of local lung cancer nurse specialists. We provide access to our network of monthly support groups, where patients and their families and carers can find out more about lung cancer issues and share experiences with others. We also provide information booklets on lung cancer problems.

Our lung cancer patient involvement programme provides people affected by lung cancer to have the opportunity to help shape lung cancer services and raise the profile of the lung cancer globally.

The Foundation also organises an annual patient conference for patients, carers and nurses interested in lung cancer.

We produce a quarterly Newsletter - click here for the latest edition.
