Description
ARC Cancer Support is a voluntary organisation which provides a range of professional support, complementary therapies and counselling services to men and women living with cancer. Coming to terms with cancer can be very difficult. In ARC we offer comfort through this period of stress and anxiety together with psychological and emotional support.
We have a team of psychotherapists, counsellors, reflexologists and yoga teachers, administration and fundraising staff. ARC could not survive without the support of a host of brilliant volunteers who help to manage the ‘drop in’ centres and fundraise for ARC.
Our services are FREE OF CHARGE but we rely heavily on fundraising efforts to provide these in our two centres in Dublin:
Northside: 65 Eccles Street
Southside: 559 South Circular Road
