Macmillan Buddies Cumbria

How a Macmillan Buddy helps

Going through cancer can be an isolating experience at any time. Our free Macmillan Buddy service is here for you.

We'll match you with someone who understands what you're going through, and they'll give you a weekly telephone call or visits in your home.

Your volunteer buddy is there for you. You can talk to them about how you're feeling and your support needs during this difficult time. They can also let you know about our services, and all the ways Macmillan can help, to make sure you don't face cancer alone.

We have volunteers across Cumbria ready to support you either over the phone, in your home or out in the community so don't hesitate to sign up for support!
