Macmillan Cancer Support in Lanarkshire
The motion
That the Parliament acknowledges the work of Macmillan Cancer Support in Lanarkshire and the key role that it is playing with partners to continue supporting communities and people affected by cancer in North and South Lanarkshire, despite being unable to offer in-person services due to the COVID-19 pandemic; welcomes its fast approach to service reconfiguration to telephone, email and Skype to provide emotional support and access to vital information and services; acknowledges the work that the service has carried out with NHS inform to ensure that people can now “click to be contacted” when using the NHS Inform website, and urges anyone in Lanarkshire that needs support with cancer to contact Macmillan by email or calling 01698 332 631.
