Background to the Living Well @ the Library with Macmillan cancer support
The service has been developed as a partnership between Macmillan Cancer Support, NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde and Renfrewshire Libraries. An area within the libraries is used to provide a drop in cancer information and support service where we welcome visitors with a friendly smile. The service provides a safe and confidential area and ensures that those affected by cancer have access to good quality, comprehensive and appropriate information and support.

MacMillan Cancer Support provides the expert care and emotional support that makes a real difference to people living with cancer. Renfrewshire Libraries believe the service can make a real difference to people's lives by harnessing the skills of three different organisations in a supportive environment.
