Last year, the service supported over 181,000 people across England, Scotland and Wales, and is a great way to provide access to hard-to-reach communities. Cancer specialists are on hand to talk to people in confidence and support their emotional, financial and practical needs.
Visit macmillan.org.uk/mobileinfo to find out if the mobile bus is coming to your community. Please help us spread the word with the people you support.
