The CCC Hannover offers patients and their relatives various events and educational programs. These include the "Info Series Cancer" (a series of events with four dates a year) and the "OnkoHelfer" program, an offer for interested laypeople without basic medical training. The CCC also organizes regular meetings with self-help groups ("the round table of self-help groups"). We also provide information on specific diseases on various health and campaign days.

It is important to us not only to raise awareness of oncological diseases and their prevention among the general public, but also to actively involve patients in the various processes and structures of research and care, and to empower them in joint decision-making. Formats in which people affected by cancer can participate can be found at www.mhh.de/ccc/patient-empowerment.
