Hi There

I'd like to join the group that discussed prostate cancer but can't figure out how to join that group. Can you point me in the right direction?

  • Hi  and welcome to the Online Community but I am sorry to see you joining us.

    As you see the Community is divided into dedicated Support Groups (Discussion Rooms) and I do see that you have already joined the Prostate cancer support group. This is a safe place to talk to others with a similar diagnosis, treatment experience, to ask questions and get support.

    To connect with the group first click on the “Bold Link” I have created above then once the group page opens you can put up your own post by clicking “+new” or “+” in the top right next to the group title.

    You can also scroll through other members posts and click “Reply” to get involved.

    It’s a challenging time for you so you may want to use the Macmillan Support Line is open 8am-8pm (timings may differ across services) 7 days a week on 0808 808 00 00 or via Webchat and Email too. This service provides cancer information, practical information, emotional support, benefits/financial guidance or just a listening ear. We also have our Ask an Expert section but do allow a few working days for a reply.

    Talking to people face to face can be very helpful so do check to see if you have any Local Macmillan Support in your area, do also check for a local Maggie's Centre as these folks are amazing.

    Do get back to me if you need further help navigating the community.
