Useful Health Information

Bowel Cancer UK

Chat Together is our free online support group for people living with and beyond bowel cancer. It’s a welcoming place to talk to others with bowel cancer and to meet new people. It’s a chance to share experiences in a safe, supportive and informal environment.

Chat Together is a chance for patients to virtually get together and support each other from the comfort of their own homes at this time of isolation. They just need a smartphone, tablet or computer with an internet connection and somewhere quiet to sit.

Refer your patients today to this vital peer support service!

100% of patients found the service helpful and 100% felt better connected following their chat group. 88% of patients could cope better after the chats.
 

What patients can expect

Chats take place once a week, via Zoom, over an eight week period. 

Choose between two Chat Together groups starting on:

Tuesday 26 January 7-8pm OR Wednesday 27 January 1-2pm

Chats are hosted by Bowel Cancer UK staff and trained volunteers who’ve had bowel cancer themselves
