About

The Ballinasloe Cancer Support Centre was established in 2009 to provide a psychological and emotional support service for persons diagnosed with cancer and their families. It provides a free and confidential service which includes counselling, reflexology, acupuncture, holistic massage therapy, and bereavement support.

The centre is also committed to providing ongoing information and education on relevant topics and has available a list of publication, booklets and pamphlets in the centre. No appointment is necessary to drop into the centre during opening hours.

What We Do:

• Due to Covid, we are currently offering counseling with our psychologist either over the phone or via Zoom meeting.

• We provide a drop in service in a safe, friendly, caring and confidential environment, where people with cancer can be listened to.

• We provide emotional support for the person with cancer and their family.

• We provide access to further support networks and information.

• We provide a wide range of complimentary therapies to people with cancer.

• We provide an ongoing programme of workshops and lectures about cancer related issues.

• We promote awareness of current cancer related issues and prevention strategies.
