So our next challenge will be to reach people inever more relevant and personalised ways, at the times that they really need us.Healthcare servicesAll healthcare professionalsNursesIn 2011, we reached 527,000 people through our all of our Macmillan healthcareprofessionals (Macmillan Nurses, Macmillan AHPs and Macmillan source of supportDoctors combined).Macmillan Nurses help people living with cancer and their families receive essentialmedical, practical and emotional support.Questions about living with cancer?Call the Macmillan Support Line free on 0808 808 00 00 or visit macmillan.org.ukMacmillan Cancer Support, registered charity in England and Wales (261017), Scotland (SC039907) and the Isle of Man (604).
