Short profile:
FACT provides help, support and social opportunities for people going through the cancer journey, their families and friends.
We build partnerships with health professionals, statutory bodies, support groups and services, charities and voluntary organisations.
We deliver education and awareness programms and events as a roadshow into schools, colleges and places of work.
Detailed description:
FACT Cancer Support is a charity which offers cancer support, awareness and education for local people in local communities. The Charity is run by three local mothers and was set up in 2008 as a result of their own experiences of cancer. We recognise the need for more accessible and on-going support in a relaxed, friendly, non-clinical atmosphere and are currently trying to raise £2 million to open the UK’s first Cancer Support, Awareness and Education Centre, in the North East.
We are always looking for volunteers to help in our charity shop and at various events we hold throughout the year to do things such as marshalling or bag packing.
