What the service does
Melanoma Patients Australia offers support groups for people affected by melanoma. Monthly in-person groups are held across Australia and are led by trained volunteers with lived experience. Monthly online groups include the National Melanoma Meet Up, Mucosal Melanoma Support Group, and a group for people in regional and remote areas. A phone support group for people with metastatic melanoma runs twice a month and is co-facilitated by health professionals. Private Facebook groups are also available for people and carers to connect, share stories, and support each other.
