Macmillan Project

If you've been affected by cancer, your finances probably won't be your first thought. Yet many people find a cancer diagnosis can bring money worries, with costs they hadn't considered.

At North East Derbyshire CAB we lead on a project for Derbyshire providing benefits and money advice for cancer sufferers, their families and carers. Derbyshire CAB work together on this project. People should either contact their local CAB, telephone the helpline or email (see below) to access services. We provide the full range of welfare rights advice services, advice, information and support.

To make contact with the team please ring the Derbyshire Macmillan Helpline 01246 828852 which is open 10am - 12.30pm, Monday, Wednesday and Thursday or e-mail macmillan.enquiries@ned-cab.org.uk

An initial assessment will be made by telephone, and if appropriate the case will be referred to the relevant caseworker at the CAB covering the area in Derbyshire where the claimant lives.
