The CANDU team are committed to ensuring the lived experience of cancer is represented on all decision making forums and strategic boards.  We are delighted to represent the cancer lived experience at the Scottish Government Cross Party Group on Cancer, the NHS Tayside Living With & After Cancer Subgroup and wherever we are invited to share and advise.

 

CANDU hosts & organises activities which bring together others affected by cancer to share experiences, build supportive relationships and understand the needs, wants and wishes of local people.

​

We are also delighted to host an annual Cancer Lived Experience Conference in Dundee.
