Kom op tegen Kanker provides comprehensive psychological support to cancer patients and their loved ones through a variety of services. These include the confidential Cancer Line for advice and emotional support, peer support groups for shared experiences, and hospital volunteers offering companionship during treatment. The organization also runs buddy programs to support young adults, “Look Good, Feel Better” workshops to boost self-esteem, and informal information sessions to foster connection and understanding. Together, these initiatives aim to alleviate the emotional burden of cancer and enhance the overall well-being of those affected.
