Cancerbackup merged with Macmillan Cancer Support in April 2008. We provide the same high quality, expertly developed information about cancer, and now we can make it available to everyone who needs it. Our vision is for all people affected by cancer to have the information they want, when they want it - find out more on the main Macmillan website.
