Macmillan buddies

Going through cancer can be an isolating experience at any time. We are pleased to let you know that Macmillan offer a free Buddy service to help you feel more connected to someone who knows what living with cancer feels like.

They will match you with someone who understands what you're going through, and they'll give you a weekly telephone call.

Your volunteer buddy is there for you. You can talk to them about how you're feeling and your support needs during this difficult time. They can also let you know about our services, and all the ways Macmillan can help, to make sure you don't face cancer alone.
