Our friendly specialist nurses are only a call or email away for anyone affected by this disease. They are specialists in pancreatic cancer and can talk for as long as is needed. From tailored information on treatments, managing symptoms or coping with emotions, they can recommend practical steps and bring comfort and reassurance along the way. For many, they are a lifeline.
The coronavirus pandemic has impacted us all in so many ways but for people with pancreatic cancer, we know it’s an especially worrying time. That’s why we’ve created a hub designed to give people facing pancreatic cancer during the pandemic up-to-the-minute information and guidance.

Our free information covers everything about pancreatic cancer to help people understand their diagnosis, ask questions, make decisions and live as well as they can. It’s been reviewed by experts, is easy to understand and can be accessed whenever needed. Last year, over 800,000 people accessed our information online.
We run regular Living with Pancreatic Cancer online support sessions via Zoom. Hosted by our specialist pancreatic cancer nurses, they give people with pancreatic cancer the chance to connect with others across the UK who have also been diagnosed; ask questions, share experiences, support each other and feel understood.
