I have just been diagnosed with breast  cancer, planned lump removal followed by radiology  . 

My husband and I both work full time with reasonable wages so realise how much of a loss of income going on ssp will be.

Not used benefit system for ages ,any advice on what if any help I can get .

I live in council house , have no young children . 

  • Hi  

    Welcome to our community though sorry to hear about your diagnosis, it is always quite a shock. You might find it helpful to look at and perhaps introduce yourself on our Breast cancer forum where we have a very active group talking about how life is affecting them.

    In a more direct reply to your question we could look at Money and work where there is a lot of information. 

    Hope that helps

  • This is not any easy question to answer as it all depends on circumstances.   If  your Macmillann nurse has not asked for a financial review to be carried out I would contact them to ask for a referral.
