Support groups
A cancer diagnosis can be life-changing, but you don’t have to face it alone. Our support groups offer a safe, welcoming space for people affected by upper gastrointestinal (GI) cancers, including biliary, liver, oesophageal, pancreatic, or stomach cancers, to connect, share experiences, and support one another.
Find connection and support from others who understand.
Whether you're a patient, carer, or grieving the loss of a loved one, our groups provide meaningful connection, emotional support, and practical insights from others who truly understand. If you've been impacted by an upper GI cancer including biliary, liver, oesophageal, pancreatic, or stomach cancer, we warmly invite you to join our support groups.

- Share and receive emotional support
