Melanoma-Me Referrals
At Melanoma-Me Foundation, our priority is to make sure that everyone affected by melanoma feels supported, heard and able to access the care they need, regardless of their circumstances.
We are committed to keeping our counselling service free wherever possible, because we believe that financial circumstances should never be a barrier to receiving emotional support.
As we do not receive regular funding for this service and rely heavily on the generosity of our community, we would be incredibly grateful to anyone who is able to make a contribution of £15 or more per counselling session.
We completely understand that not everyone will be in a position to contribute, and there is absolutely no obligation to do so. Your circumstances will never affect your access to our support.
If you are able to contribute, even a small donation can make a real difference. It helps us continue to provide compassionate, specialist support to people living with melanoma and their loved ones, when they need it most.
