Hi Sabbott,

I am sorry but don't quite understand your question,this is a National support group for "Ovarian Cancer" and if you went on the "OvaCome" website you will be able to read the support they give on there i.e. Information, research, helpline etc. If you want to know about something specific there is a telephone number to ring them up....there are others support sites as well...best wishes x G x

I think this is the only support site - though there are other charities that have slightly different functions - Ovarian Action raises funds for research and also gives out information on Ovarian Cancer, and there's also very good support on the Macmillan website.

You don't mention your area on your profile. Are you in the UK? There may be other support services elsewhere.

Hope this is helpful.

There are a couple of other organisations, Target Ovarian and The Eve Appeal, but they have a different focus. Ovacome (ovacome.org.uk) is the only one who offers support for patients and their families as far as I'm aware. All the details of their support and factsheets are listed on the website, It's not quite the sanme as this site, but the two are linked.

All the best

Love Wendy xx
