Our Macmillan team provide an advice service for people affected by cancer. If you or someone close to you has been diagnosed with cancer, money might not be one of the first things you think about. But having cancer can be expensive. Your income may go down and your expenses may go up. If you are struggling to cope with the financial impact of cancer, remember that there is help available. We offer a free, confidential advice service to people living with cancer, their carers and relatives. Ask your Macmillan or specialist nurse to make a referral to us. Whichever way you contact us, we will get back in touch with you and provide advice either by telephone, at our Citizens Advice office, an outreach, or at your home if you are not well enough to travel. The Macmillan Benefits Advice Service can provide advice by phone, email, and in our office (with appropriate Covid safety measures in place)operates in the following locations: St. Mary?s House, Taunton; Musgrove Park Hospital, Taunton; St. Margaret?s Hospice, Taunton.
