Founder

• Feb 2021 - Present

cancer.JE is a local online resource hub for anyone affected by cancer, from patients to professionals. It is a non-medical site as it is about the day to day living while affected by cancer, and ways to make life easier. We are run by a team of people affected by cancer (either with cancer, have had cancer, or have a relative with cancer). We also have two cancer professionals on our Board as we know how easy it can be to inadvertently do harm, especially with a subject as complex as cancers. It includes: - Jersey-specific information on where to get support, - easy access to local government information relevant to cancer patients (inc. financial), - tips for dealing with side effects of treatment or symptoms of cancer, - sign-posting to reliable and trustworthy sources of information on cancer, - a Directory to help people find services and products locally is under development. The running costs of cancer.JE are met by the Founder, with very kind donation of the website from Corefocus Consultancy Ltd. Future aims: - getting the main Directory complete so it is easier for people in Jersey to find charitable and statutory cancer services in Jersey, - completing the second Directory which will be for related services in Jersey (again charitable or statutory), - completing the third Directory which will aim to make people aware of the various 'medical' products on-island which may be of use to them, and where they can be found.
