We aim to be highly visible and easily approachable, and this is reflected in the way we are organized centrally and locally. Three central departments; the Department of Cancer Concerns, the Communications and Fund-raising Department and the Administration and Finance Department allow us to work effectively at international, national and local levels.
We have local offices in Tromsø, Trondheim, Bergen, Hamar, Oslo, Tønsberg and Kristiansand. Their location reflects Norway’s population distribution and cancer incidence rates. Each office handles local patient support, prevention, policy influencing and fund-raising.
We also cooperate with and fund eight voluntary patients’ associations nationwide. They provide patient care, recreation and information services to their members and play a key role in influencing local authorities and health personnel.
