Support services

Whether you have cancer or you know a friend, colleague or family member who does, you can call our Cancer Council Helpline (13 11 20) from anywhere in Victoria to talk with one of our experienced, understanding cancer nurses.

We can provide you with reliable information and practical advice on any type or stage of cancer. We can also link you to a range of support services – including cancer survivors who've been through a similar experience – all for the cost of a local call.

You don't have to face cancer alone – we're here to help.
