Cancer Services
Finding out that you or someone close to you has cancer can be a difficult and confusing time.
The Northern Trust provides care and support for people affected by cancer – whether you’ve been diagnosed with cancer, or you’re a family member, carer or friend.
This section of our website provides information about the different services you may be in contact with throughout your cancer journey, from referral through to treatment, life after treatment, and support available for you and your carers.
