British Sign Language (BSL) support group

In partnership with Deaf Connexions, we host specialist monthly sessions for the Deaf community to come together and share their experiences with fully trained members of the Big C team, and supported by a BSL interpreter.

Come along to meet other BSL users to chat, share experiences and support each other. The sessions are for people with a cancer diagnosis and those who care for someone with a diagnosis.

If you would like to find out more about the group, please fill out the form below, call 0800 092 7640 or email support@big-c.co.uk. Alternatively, you can also text us on 07952 381 357 or 07419 212 537.
