We Hear You – Cancer Counselling

Coronavirus notice:

Following the Government announcement that England will be going into lockdown in January 2021 until further notice, we want to reassure our clients and supporters that We Hear You continues to support people affected by cancer and life threatening conditions, with all counselling sessions for adults and young people over the age of 12 taking place by telephone or online. 

As of 8th March 2021, our face-to-face service for younger children is operational across several of our venues.

All our operations and fundraising team will be working from home, so please do bear with us, as some of us are also on reduced hours. The phone will be diverted during office hours and you can also reach us via email.

As a small charity reliant upon its community fundraising activities, we face huge challenges to raise the £5,000 we need every single week to provide our services. Could you help us by making a one off donation? Or could you become a regular giver and provide us with much-needed security?

We Hear You works across Bath and North East Somerset, Somerset and Wiltshire providing emotional support to patients, families, friends and carers who have been affected by cancer or any other life threatening condition.

At We Hear you we understand that cancer and life threatening conditions can be overwhelming. People who use our service often report feeling numb, isolated and terrified and are struggling to cope. We provide a safe space where people can say the unsayable and ask the unanswerable. When you ask WHY… we hear you.

If you are affected or have been bereaved by cancer or another life threatening condition and would like to know more about our counselling, please see our 'Get Support' pages.
