Travel
If you are having, or have had, treatment for cancer, there are a few additional issues to consider when travelling.
If you are still having treatment, we recommend you speak with a member of the healthcare team that is treating you. They can advise you as to the suitability of your journey and any precautions you should take.
The LJMC team is also pleased to help answer any questions you may have.
