Specialist nurse Support Line

Our specialist nurses are here to guide you, whether you have been diagnosed or you are supporting someone with pancreatic cancer. They can answer your questions with expert information, recommend clear, practical steps and provide the emotional support you and your loved ones need, when you need it most.

How can we help you

  • Our specialist nurses support thousands of people like you each year – they can provide guidance, answer your questions and recommend practical steps 
  • You can contact them about anything – managing symptoms, questions about your diagnosis, navigating the healthcare systems across the UK, treatment options, or just to talk about how you’re really feeling 

If you just feel overwhelmed and not sure who to turn to, contact our nurses, and they can help.

It was such a relief to be able to talk frankly with someone who was so incredibly well informed at the same time as being so compassionate. It was very liberating to be able to speak candidly. You have been such a comfort.

Frequently Asked Questions 

How much does it cost?


Using our Support Line, emailing us, or using WhatsApp* is completely free – you will not be charged for any calls made within the UK. 

*Please check network or data charges with your network provider if applicable. 

What happens with my personal details?


We will keep your personal details, along with a very brief summary of the discussion, email or WhatsApp exchange we have had with you, on our secure database. This record is confidential, and only the team involved in supporting you will be able to access it. A record will only be kept if we have your consent you can stay anonymous if you prefer. 

 

What if I have speech or hearing difficulties?


We are able to speak with you and a support person, if you have one, to help you during the call. Alternatively, you can contact us via email or WhatsApp. 

 

I don't live in the UK - can I still contact the nurses?


We can take enquiries from outside the UK, but please be aware that we can only give general information about pancreatic cancer, and we are unable to advise on healthcare systems overseas. If you’re outside the UK, it may be easiest to email us, rather than call or WhatsApp.
