Cancer Information Hub
The Sheffield Cancer Information Hub is brought to you by Cavendish Cancer Care and is funded with the kind support of the Sheffield Clinical Commissioning Group. Based in the Moor Market in Sheffield, our current opening times are;
Monday-Friday 10am -4pm
Here you will find useful information and links to resources from local organisations who have expertise in the support and information provision for cancer patients and their families. Our goal is to provide a one stop shop where you can find links and resources to support you on your cancer journey.
On this page you will find links to local organisations based in an around Sheffield who can support you if you are in the local area. National charities also provide a wealth of support on specific cancer types, screenings and conditions as well as helplines and support forums. You can find information and links to these on the Cancer Information Hub page via the button below
Although every effort is made all the information is current the partner organisation is responsible for the content of their own website.
