A healthcare charity is a charitable organisation which has been set up with an aim to help change sick people’s lives. For example, it may help to raise funds for research into a specific disease or pay for terminally ill children to have a fun week at Disney land and help cheer them up. It could even donate funding to a specific hospital to help improve the patients experience whilst they are there or increase the number of services available such as having more equipment on offer, clinical research or further training courses for the staff.

A healthcare charity may also help to provide support and hope for patients with certain diseases or illnesses. It can help to encourage them to focus on getting better or if this is not a possibility then make the most of the time they have left as well as coming to terms with everything.

Cancer support charities can help various types of people to deal with different aspects of the disease for example you may simply be worried about it, or you could have been recently diagnosed or living with it for a while. They can also help you if you want to raise money for the cause or give your time to help out. They are happy to speak to carers who are looking after someone with cancer too, so there is always someone to talk to. They also provide advise to employees and businesses to help deal with cancer, whether one of their work force has become ill or someone cannot afford to pay their bills while they are off work and fighting through the disease.

There are also cancer support systems in place to help those with the disease. Support groups can be offered to people to help them reduce stress and share problems with others who are in the same situation. These are good as they can provide encouragement, support and guidance and give advice on how to hope with the situation. There are many steps you can take to help you feel more positive so they will help you to do this and share tips with you that you can try out and hopefully improve your state of mind.

It does help to talk to others in the same position as you as you may feel that your family and friends don’t truly understand what you are going through. They teach you to life your life to the full, and take every day one step at a time.
