National Helpline 01223 846845
Do you have concerns or worries that you would like to talk to someone about?
Our telephone helpline, as part of our national support services, normally operates 9.00am to 7.00pm Monday to Saturday
If you get no reply please leave your name and number and we shall attend to your call as soon as possible.
If you have a question or issue that is best in writing, please write to our Head Office who will try to find an appropriate person to answer it.
All the people who answer our helplines have been patients or carers so are likely to understand your concerns because they have been there.

News from the Area
How quickly the weeks and months seem to fly past! I have just realised that I missed the last Journal, so will try to catch up with all the news from the Cambridge Group – some of it rather late.
At our well-attended Annual General Meeting in February the same committee was re-elected – I suppose that is no surprise.
Just a couple of days before Easter some 50 members joined together for a most enjoyable afternoon Easter tea at The Meridian Golf Club.
At our April meeting Revd Tom Ambrose gave an illustrated talk on Northern Spain, where he had been a geologist some 40 years ago. He showed most interesting slides of farming methods of the era, concluding his talk with the Pilgrims’ Way to Santiago.
At our 24 June meeting we will be having a speaker talking about Scotsdale, a new cancer help centre that has been set up in Great Shelford at a Garden Centre.
In August, Miss Rosemary Wheeler will talk on 'My life as a lady butcher'.
We have now arranged our annual visit to the theatre and Southwold on Thursday 6th August to see 'Caught in the Net' – a Ray Cooney farce that brings back memories of the old Whitehall farces.
We have purchased a special bed for Mallard Ward at Papworth Hospital, with the generous help of two of our members. This has been well received by both the hospital and the patients using the bed.
Trust you are all well
