'Living With & Beyond Cancer' Service Mapping Survey
Tees Valley VCSE Sector Survey
Catalyst has received funding from the Northern Cancer Alliance to link up NHS Cancer Services (hospital care/secondary care), Primary Care (GP practices) and voluntary/community services to improve the quality of life for those ‘Living With & Beyond Cancer' across Tees Valley.
As part of this project, we are seeking to understand what support voluntary and community organisations/groups are currently offering to people affected by Cancer; what these services looks like; and how we can better help groups to improve the support they give to people 'Living With & Beyond Cancer'.
We would really appreciate you taking the time to complete this short survey as this will influence our future work with the Northern Cancer Alliance and health partners from across the region - alongside helping to recognise the invaluable work you do in the community.
For more information, please contact Nathan Duff at nathan.duff@catalyststockton.org or call 01642 733906.
