- Parents whose children have cancer
- Members of the caring professions who work with people with cancer
- Children whose parent (or other significant adult in their lives) has cancer
What happens when I come to ARC?
We know it can be difficult to knock on a door, but please don't worry. When you come to ARC, you will be greeted by a member of our staff or one of our trained volunteers who will chat with you over a cuppa about our services. It's entirely up to you to decide if ARC is for you. Come along and see for yourself.
