Need help with your cancer journey?
When someone is diagnosed with cancer, they may experience feelings of shock, anger, or confusion. Even the most supportive family members, friends, or employers cannot understand exactly how it feels to go through a cancer journey.
A cancer support group is one way for individuals to interact with other people in similar circumstances.
What to expect?
A safe and welcoming space for people to get to know each other and get the support they need. Meetings are social and informative and designed to provide peer support as well as up to date information and current good practice for people who have undergone a laryngectomy.
Support provided:
• Peer encouragement
• Reduction in social isolation
• Information about cancer services and treatment
• Fun and friendship
“Sharing your story in a safe space with others in similar circumstances can help someone living with a laryngectomy to process emotions around their diagnosis and treatment”
Caroline Hart, Group Work Coordinator
