ESCA CancerSupport is undergoing a significant transformation and will now be known as Cancer Support Switzerland. This name change is more than just a rebranding; it signifies their commitment to expanding their services beyond the Lake Geneva region and reaching a broader audience across Switzerland.

Cancer Support Switzerland, a non-profit association, will continue its mission to provide free support in English to those affected by cancer. Expanding their services across the country comes from the growing number of individuals affected by cancer. With increased life expectancy and a diverse population, our goal is to ensure that no one, regardless of nationality or language, feels alone during such a challenging time.

We caught up with Alana Dunsmore, Communications and Awareness Manager at Cancer Support Switzerland. She told us, "We believe that our new name better reflects our mission and the inclusive nature of our services. Expanding our services allow us to offer emotional support, practical assistance, and well-being support to anyone directly or indirectly affected by cancer who prefers assistance in English. We have services and activities available in Geneva, Lausanne, Zürich and online, delivered by both professional Counsellor and trained volunteers.

Alana explains, "Rest assured, Cancer Support Switzerland will continue to provide the same excellent level of service and care that we have for the last 23 years, and our services will remain free of charge, thanks to your financial support as well as the way you continue to give in so many other ways, all of which is greatly appreciated.

"Thank you for your ongoing support, and we look forward to continuing our journey as Cancer Support Switzerland. All support is very helpful for us as we launch the new identity and want to make sure we reach all the people who may need our support through cancer. As part of our mission to provide a welcoming community in English so that no one has to face cancer alone, we are currently expanding our scope from Geneva, Vaud and neighbouring France to provide services throughout Switzerland.

"We would be immensely grateful if you could help us spread the word by sharing this news within your community. Our success in reaching those who need our support relies on the strength of our collective outreach, and your assistance in disseminating this information is invaluable."
