Welcome

This site is really two different web sites in one and we have divided the pages accordingly.This page is a mixture of the two. Cancer pages are pages with information about various different types of cancer ranging from bowel cancer to breast cancer and prostate cancer to cervical cancer.

The other part of the site is devoted to West Suffolk, Thetford and Sudbury Cancer Support Group. There are many Cancer Self Help Groups in the UK. They support those people who have been affected by Cancer and that means they are open to a wide variety of people.
