Youth Cancer Service
Cancer changes everything. But you don’t have to go through it alone.
Getting the right information and support can make a huge difference. And that’s where Canteen comes in. We provide a wide range of free services and programs tailored to your cancer experience, we have some helpful advice for partners and friends, we have a range of articles to read which cover a range of topics, and you can also connect with other young people dealing with similar stuff through Canteen Connect.
Cancer in the family is tough for everyone
If someone in your family has cancer, there are probably heaps of questions, feelings and new thoughts running through your head. We get it.
“It’s cancer”. Now What?
Whether you’ve just heard those words or you’re halfway through treatment, cancer has probably turned your world upside down. We get it. Canteen is in your corner with whatever support you need.
Grief and loss
Nothing really prepares you for the death of someone you love. Getting the right support when someone in your family has died is so important, but asking for help can be tricky too.
