Families in Carlow and Kilkenny who have been affected by cancer are being asked to take part in research to establish the financial impact it has on them.
The Irish Cancer Society is doing the study called “The real cost of cancer” and you can take part by logging onto www.cancer.ie/realcost.
Kathleen O Meara from the Irish Cancer Society says drugs; travel, childcare and home heating fuel are the bills people struggle with mostly.
