Hi everyone,
Welcome to the Online Community.
If you're joining us late at night, or in the very early morning, we want to make sure you have someone to talk to. The Online Community is always open and we are making it easier for members to connect and chat with each other, whether it be 3pm or 3am.
We have created a new thread in the Cancer Chat forum to help bring members together in a place where they can chat through the night.
It's a new thread, so it might take some time to build a Community of members who support each other. We hope you might consider joining the conversation here - Awake and up all night.
If you are in need of professional healthcare support, but it's not an emergency, the NHS 111 service is open 24 hours:
For more emotional support you can also text "SHOUT" to 85258 to contact the Shout Crisis Text Line any time day or night.
Thanks all and do let us know if you have any questions. You can contact the Community team by email at community@macmillan.org.uk or send a private message to Moderator - Macmillan Community.
Hi Steph - Macmillan and everyone else in the Online Community team.
Thanks very much for setting this thread up in the cancer chat group and I'm sure lots of people will make use of it.
Anne
