Partners in Care is a Pfizer initiative, developed in collaboration with Cancer Patients Europe, dedicated to supporting cancer caregivers. We recognise the importance of caregivers throughout the cancer journey and the challenges they may face along the way.

Caring for someone with cancer is a vital role. Yet, while caregiving can be highly rewarding, it’s also mentally and physically demanding1–3. These resources are designed to help you look after your own wellbeing as you care for your loved one.
