Pancreatic Cancer UK is a national charity striving for a good and long life for everyone diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.

We aim to give patients and their families access to the best possible support, information, treatment and care. If you have any questions we run a support line for anyone affected by pancreatic cancer, through which you can access support and information about pancreatic cancer from our specialist nurses, you can also contact us at support@pancreaticcancer.org.uk.
Pancreatic Cancer Action
Tel: 0303 040 1770
Too many people are diagnosed too late. We need to ‘change the numbers’ for pancreatic cancer by making more people aware of the symptoms and to understand the risks. We work to raise awareness of pancreatic cancer among both the public and medical communities, to improve the information available for patients and we provide educational courses for medical clinicians. We also fund research specifically to help improve early diagnosis.
