A NEW Macmillan Cancer information and support service in Oban Library will be officially opened by Provost Len Scoullar and Brendan O’Hara MP on Monday June 20.
The service has been developed in partnership with Macmillan Cancer Support, Argyll and Bute Council, NHS Highland and Argyll and Bute Third Sector Interface to provide much-needed support for people living with cancer, their families and carers.
A team of specially trained volunteers run the service and offer one-to-one emotional support, guidance with information materials on various aspects of cancer and its treat ment or simply a listening ear over a cup of tea.
