Macmillan Cancer Support

In this Podcast, Martin and Patrick are delighted to talk with John-Paul Holt (JP) who is a Macmillan Cancer Care Navigator.

Paul is based at the Macmillan Centre at the West Suffolk Hospital in Bury St Edmunds located in Suffolk UK.

We are so lucky to have JP on our Podcast today given his heavy and important workload, but JP has found some time to tell us about the history of Macmillan Cancer Care, his role, and what Macmillan Cancer Care provides.

In 1911, a young man named Douglas Macmillan watched his father die of cancer. His father's pain and suffering moved Douglas so much, that he founded the Society for the Prevention and Relief of Cancer.

Macmillan is one of the UK's largest Cancer Charities which provides a range of services and support not only to the Cancer patients themselves but also to their families and friends too.

Listen to JP explain the range of support and services available from simple things like a chat to helping with the Cance, finances, and a whole range of things that come into play following a Cancer Diagnosis.

This is an extended Podcast as we cannot echo enough how important Macmillian Cancer Support is to the patients, family, and friends of this terrible illness and how they are with you every step of the way.

Macmillan Cancer Support relies on public support too, from fundraising, and special events to Voluntary workers including their Free Macmillan Buddies.

Some of the things Macmillan provide

Cancer Information Nurse Specialist
Financial Guidance
Energy advice
Welfare rights and advice
Work Support Service
