Macmillan Information Service - Support Groups and Workshops - Introduction

Joining a support group or attending an event offers a chance to talk to other people who may be in a similar situation and facing similar challenges.

At the Whittington we have developed a wide range of Health and Well-being events and groups for both patients and their family and friends to provide a variety of support. Click the tabs below to browse through upcoming events.

The Macmillan & Whittington Health LGBTQIA+ Health Care Event is back!

Last year we made the decision in consultation with our patient partners to postpone the LGBTQIA+ cancer care event which was due to take place in January.

We’re thrilled to announce the rescheduled LGBTQIA+ Health Care Event. A vital space to explore the experiences and challenges faced by the LGBTQIA+ community across healthcare, helping to shape and improve cancer care and beyond.

Date: Saturday 17 May

Time: 1PM - 7PM

Location: Queer Britain, 2 Granary Square, London, N1C 4BH

Talks from Dr. Alison Berner & LGBTQIA+ community leaders

Live performance by Wake the Beast

Activities, discussions & refreshments

This is more than just an event-it’s a call to action. Let’s work together to ensure healthcare is safe, inclusive, and responsive for all.
