You are navigating life with cancer?<\/h3>\n

Being diagnosed with cancer as a young adult can turn everything upside down. Suddenly there are questions about treatment, work or studies, relationships, fertility, finances and what life might look like during and after cancer.<\/p>\n

As a foundation we support people with or after a cancer diagnosis aged 18 to 39. We provide a wide range of practical information, counselling services and opportunities to connect with others who truly understand what you are going through. Our aim is simple: you don\u2019t have to face this alone.<\/p>\n

Our services are designed to be easy to access and relevant to everyday life, during treatment and beyond.<\/p>\n

Please note: Our programmes and materials are currently available in German. If you have questions in English, you are very welcome to contact us via email or phone. We are happy to advise you in English and help you find the right support.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Below you\u2019ll find an overview of our main services. More detailed information is available on our German website.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n
