About the SSG and

How we help…

Sefton Support Group is a registered charity based in Formby, on Merseyside and serves the population of Sefton. We provide support to individuals, their Carers and Family Members who have been affected by life-threatening illnesses and conditions.

Many of our members have suffered from Cancer, Crohn’s Disease, Behcet’s Disease, Dementia, Alzheimer’s Disease, Heart Disease, Motor Neuron Disease and more.

For many life-threatening illnesses and conditions, there is little support available after diagnosis or after being discharged from the hospital, and we attempt to fill that gap alongside other voluntary groups in Sefton and the Merseyside area.

How we support our members

We support our members in a number of ways within our support network, which includes:

R

Activities and therapies

We don’t just provide support emotionally and with a listening ear.
