This World Cancer Day, we recognise the impact that cancer has on individuals, families, and communities โ€” not just medically, but emotionally, socially and practically.
ย 
Support comes in many forms: from specialist services and peer groups, to local organisations offering guidance, wellbeing activities and community connection.
ย 
Thatโ€™s where the Essex Map (www.essexmap.co.uk) can help.
ย 
ย 
Itโ€™s a free, searchable directory of local support services across Essex โ€” including cancer support groups, counselling services, wellbeing activities and more โ€” designed to make it easier for people to find the right support at the right time.
ย 
ย 
๐Ÿ—บ๏ธ For residents:
ย 
Whether youโ€™re living with cancer, supporting someone who is, or looking for local wellbeing resources, visit www.essexmap.co.ukto explore support near you.
ย 
ย 
๐Ÿข For organisations:
ย 
If your cancer support service or community group isnโ€™t on the Essex Map yet, please consider adding your listing โ€” itโ€™s free and helps people connect with the support they need. Email: communications@essexalliance.org.uk
ย 
Support starts with information, connection and community โ€” and no one should have to find their way alone.
