Remember that your hospital doctors, nurses, GP and other health professionals are there to support you, and to give you information. Talk to them and feel free to ask them questions.

Your hospital may have a clinical nurse specialist who is an expert in helping people with skin cancer or you can talk to your keyworker (a member of the multidisciplinary team). They will be able to answer many of your questions and signpost you to further sources of support. Your hospital social worker will be able to help with practical and financial matters.

There are a number of local and national support groups and information services you may also like to contact.
