There is some planned maintenance taking place on Macmillan’s website on Tuesday 14th June, from 5am-10am.
So that this essential maintenance can take place, the Online Community will experience some downtime. This means that members will not be able to log in, or join the Online Community, between 5am - 10am On Tuesday 14th June 2022.
We know how important the Community is as a source of support for our members…
Do you feel like your cancer experience changed you?
Here in the Online Community, we’re featuring a new series working with Macmillan’s Digital Storytelling Project, where people affected by cancer have created their own videos to talk about their experiences. For June’s Story of the Month, we’re featuring Eleni.

Creativity can be a helpful tool to find comfort and support. For Community member and Macmillan volunteer Wee Me, the Online Community’s “Express yourself” group and taking the time to be creative has been invaluable throughout her experience with cancer. Wee Me’s husband was diagnosed with a Glioblastoma brain tumour in September 2020. Wee Me has shared her story on Community News.
6-12 June…
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
