PATIENT TRAVEL GRANTS

We know from speaking to patients regularly, that the cost of travel can be a real issue for some families.

Melanoma UK is now running a scheme that will provide assistance to patients who need help and support with the cost of travel and if appropriate, hotel accommodation. *

If you need to apply for help, please email [email protected] and we will respond within 24 hours.

Please be aware that there are other organisations who will be able to offer advice and assistance.
