Directory of
rare and less common cancers

This directory aims to let people who want to know more about a particular rare or less common cancer know which charities are working in the field. The charities will all differ in what they are able to offer but most are able to provide information and support.

​

We've listed the charities under the type of cancer, so charities may appear more than once. If you want information on a type of rare or less common cancer that isn't listed here then do email us for assistance.

​

Please note that we're not linked up to any charities working with the 'big four' cancers of breast, bowel, lung or prostate.
