Support groups
In Europe, there are patient advocacy groups, which help patients and their families to navigate the biliary tract cancer landscape. They can be local, national or international, and they work to ensure patients receive appropriate and timely care and education. These groups can provide you with the tools you may need to help you better understand your disease, and to learn how to cope with it, living the best quality of life that you can. AMMF – The Cholangiocarcinoma Charity is a UK-based organisation dedicated solely to cholangiocarcinoma (bile duct cancer). It was established in 2002 and works to increase awareness, provide information and guidance to patients, and encourages and supports specialised research towards better diagnostic techniques and treatments and, ultimately, a cure.
