Welcome to Be Cancer Aware





Because we realise there is a need for South Africans to know and understand more about the diseases that assail them, we have created this site. We aim to be one of the reliable sources of information for South Africans looking for information on certain types of cancers.

Whether you have been diagnosed with cancer or are looking for additional information regarding cancer on behalf of a friend or family member, the aim is that you should be able to find the required information here.

Here you will find information specific to breast cancer, colorectal cancer, lymphoma, lung cancer and brain cancer.

Information includes the symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment options for these cancers.

We have also provided you with links to various South African support groups and organisations to assist you with more information. Be sure to visit this site regulalry, as additional cancer types will be added to the site.

The information in this website should not take the place of talking to a healthcare professional. If you have any questions or concerns about your health, speak to your doctor or cancer specialist.
