experience of cancer and ongoing care needs during treatment, and
on life after cancer, including rehabilitation and palliative care.
* Builds on the forthcoming NICE guidelines on Supportive
Cancer Care for Children & Young People, and recent Department
of Health guidelines & policy initiatives

professionals in cancer care
