What you’ll find in the KIT
Packaged as a convenient spiral‑bound booklet, this resource brings together key information to support you throughout your cancer experience. Each booklet includes a series of easy‑to‑read guides, topic‑specific information sheets and dedicated space to note down details you may wish to share with your treating team.
