Support

We cannot thank you and the Helpline enough. The support and email links and signposting you have offered me have been fantastic. My wife also feels reassured that she can call back at any time for your expert help

Our Helpline is open Tuesday-Thursday 10am until 4pm and this year, it has provided information and support to more than 100 people a month. Helpline

Natters

We have run an average of 13 meetings a month, either online or face-to-face, held locally, regionally or nationally. If you are interested in attending one of our Natters, or just to find out more information, please CLICK HERE to visit our Calendar.

When my Prof told me that he would be recommending PRRT (Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy) as the next step in my treatment plan, I went straight to the ‘Natter’ support group for advice. These groups have been absolutely invaluable to both myself and my husband. Other members of my support group had already been through PRRT and were able to reassure me that it was well tolerated by the majority of patients, so I felt at ease. My Natter group were also extremely supportive – the sharing of information and tips and a true understanding was incredibly helpful to me.

We have a NEW Natter group starting in West Wales (Carmarthenshire) in July and are delighted to re-start Face-to-face meetings for Surrey/Sussex (Horsham) Natter this month (June).
