Cancer Black Care Members Group
Cancer Black Care (CBC) provides vital support to Black people and ethnic minority communities affected by cancer, but not exclusively, whether directly or through loved ones and caregivers. We aim to meet the practical, emotional, and cultural needs of those facing cancer and to promote awareness, prevention, and treatment through advocacy and education.
For nearly 20 years, CBC has hosted group sessions in Camberwell, offering a safe, supportive environment where cancer patients, survivors, and caregivers can come together.
