Community
Show up. Stay. Belong.
Our community is built on human connection — online, in person, and everywhere in between.
Monthly meet-ups
Connect, talk, and simply be together.
Once a month we gather to connect, talk and simply be together. These relaxed, informal meet-ups are open to any person affected by cancer in the Netherlands.
Whether you are newly diagnosed, in treatment, living with cancer or in remission, you will find friendly faces, open hearts and understanding ears.
Online spaces
Always a door open.
WhatsApp community
The heartbeat of CSN. Daily chat, peer check-ins, and practical questions answered by people who have been there. Moderated with care.
Facebook private group
A slower, longer-form space for stories, resources, and conversations that need more than a WhatsApp thread. Approval required — for privacy.
Follow our day-to-day — community moments, event recaps, and the faces behind the support. @cancer_support_netherlands.
Partnership updates, advocacy, and the organisational side of CSN. Follow us for news from the foundation.
New for 2026
The Hive Network.
A growing network of peer supporters, advocates, and community builders — people who have walked this road and want to help others walk it too.
The Hive is where our most active community members train, connect, and build what comes next. We're opening applications gradually through 2026.
Annual campaign
Dam tot Dam Loop.
Every September our community runs the Dam tot Dam Loop together — raising funds, raising visibility, and doing something joyful in the process.
Keep this space open
Help us keep showing up.
CSN exists so no one has to go through cancer alone. If you're able to support, your contribution helps keep this community open and accessible.
