Cavendish Cancer Care (CCC) provide professional support for patients and members of the family affected by a diagnosis of cancer. We have worked alongside the NHS for over 30 years and offer counselling, complementary therapies and a range of groups and courses. Support is provided at our main centre in Sheffield and can also be accessed online and by telephone. CCC provide:

• A place where people can talk in confidence and share their feelings without the guilt or fear of upsetting anyone.
• Physical, emotional and practical advice to help people feel more in control, more confident, and more able to cope.
• Support to those who are bereaved.
• A specialist Children and Young People's Service for children who have either a cancer diagnosis themselves or have a close relative diagnosed with cancer.
• A peer to peer telephone buddy service.

For 1 to 1 therapies, Cavendish has a unique model of care which includes an initial consultation and a validated outcome measure (MYCAW). The client is enabled to identify the main concerns they would like help with and a team member co-ordinates support, remaining a point of contact should situations change or new concerns arise. Therapies include; reiki, shiatsu, counselling, hypnotherapy, acupuncture, healing, aromatherapy, art therapy, nutritional advice, art therapy and play therapy. In response to Covid and consequent changing client needs, we now offer digital delivery of well-being support through online courses, groups and classes. This has increased accessibility and enabled provision of support beyond 1 to 1 sessions and provides opportunity for clients to build skills and confidence and take responsibility for their own health and well-being in the longer term. Outreach services are delivered to in-patients who have a cancer diagnosis within the Sheffield Teaching Hospitals' Trust.
