Cancer myth busting
  • Myth: Stress can cause cancer
    Research has shown that stressful events can change the hormone level in the body however there is no conclusive evidence to suggest that the changes cause cancer.   
        
    Myth: Red wine can protect against cancer
    A small study suggested that 1-2 units of alcohol a day can reduce the risk of prostate cancer by up to 50%; there is no strong evidence that red wine can protect against cancer.

Making a claim
  • With the CancerCare Plan, we want to make sure that you get the financial help and emotional support you need as soon as possible after you are diagnosed with cancer.

    To claim, you simply need to contact CancerCare as soon as possible after diagnosis. You can call us on 0845 070 1988* or you can download a claim form from below.

    When you submit your claim form you will need to provide some information and evidence that supports the diagnosis of cancer.

    If we need you to have a medical examination we will pay the cost of it plus reasonable travel costs, if you agree them with us beforehand.
