Further information
For information about any aspect of cancer, The Cancer Council Helpline 13 11 20 is an excellent starting point. The Helpline is a free and confidential telephone information and support service (local call cost applies). If you are hearing impaired you may wish to use the National Relay Service 13 36 77 (TTY/Voice) (call costs approx. 25 cents from a fixed line - www.relayservice.com.au/howitworks).
The Helpline is staffed Monday to Friday, from 9am – 5pm in all states and territories except Queensland, where it is staffed Monday to Friday, from 8am – 8pm. Outside these hours, you can leave a message and they will call you back.
