Ovacome Logo

Ovacome is the UK’s ovarian cancer support charity. It has been providing personalised support and information to anyone affected by ovarian cancer since 1996. This includes people who have either been diagnosed with the disease or think that they might be at risk, as well as their friends and family and healthcare professionals.

 

Ovacome is a membership organisation, it is a strong community of many thousands of people, all working together with the aim of reducing isolation, sharing information, promoting knowledge and supporting anyone affected by ovarian cancer.

7,500 people are diagnosed with ovarian cancer every year. In the last year, 12,905 information booklets were requested and their online forum had more than 17,000 members.

They also provide a range of support services, including:

  • a telephone support line, as well as email and instant chat support
  • a 24-hour online forum
  • regional support and information events
  • an online programme of support groups and webinars
  • expert information booklets on ovarian cancer on a variety of topics.

Ovacome campaigns to help people and health professionals recognise the signs and symptoms of ovarian cancer and for high quality care and treatment to be available to all.

We are delighted that Ovacome have joined the Coalition and look forward unlocking new avenues for collaboration, amplifying its impact on a national scale. Together, we aim to elevate the profile of personalised care and drive meaningful change across the healthcare landscape.
