I would like support

And to connect with others affected by ovarian cancer

If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with ovarian cancer, you may have many questions and for some of you, you may want to learn as much as you can about the type of treatment and support services available.

There are many support options available for you, your family and friends. This is where you will find out about the compassion and connections you can make through support groups – whether it is face-to-face, over the phone or online. You can also download and link to a wide range of helpful information and read the very personal stories of women living with ovarian cancer.

Support resources and factsheets

We have a range of support resources to empower you with the information you need, answer many of your questions, and provide you with links to other sources of information and to a wider support community.

Support newsletter

This is OCA’s quarterly newsletter for those impacted by ovarian cancer, to help remain up-to-date with information, research and support being offered to women with ovarian cancer, their families and friends.

The Resilience Kit is a support guide for women with an ovarian cancer diagnosis, developed in close partnership with a team of experts working in cancer care and – most importantly – with women who have experienced living with ovarian cancer.
