A new cancer support group for English-speakers is to be launched next Friday at 5pm at the Costa del Sol hospital in Marbella. The meetings are aimed at all patients, relatives and friends whose lives have been touched by cancer, either currently or in the past.

Experts will be on hand to answer questions and provide information regarding a range of issues, from wigs and make-up to transportation. In association with Cudeca cancer care hospice foundation, phone help facilities will be made available to group members. Future group meetings will be held on the last Friday of each month at 5pm.
