Anyone on here from Northern Ireland? Carer for my sister and she has a number of severe conditions and just been  diagnosed with T3 , N1 bowel cancer.  Any info gratefully received.  There is only her and myself as we have no other family or friends;so support would be wonderful.  Thank you

  • Hi  Have you rung the support desk on the number below and they may be able to tell you if there’s any local support groups? I know there is 1 where I live in the local leisure centre or your local hospital may have a Maggies centre?

  • Hi Karen, unfortunately there are no support groups in Bangor. Nearest is in Belfast and as I don't drivecit does not suit me. 

    Just wondered if there was anyone on here from Bangor/Ards going through a similar situation.  

    Thanks again for replying. X
