A huge thank you to everyone who joined us as we celebrated Carers Week on Tuesday 9th June 💙

It was a wonderful day filled with relaxation, connection and conversation, including Yoga/Pilates, a fantastic Drum Rhythms and Spice experience, and a delicious home-cooked lunch.

The day was also a chance to meet and connect with our Cancer Champions, creating space for important conversations, sharing experiences and supporting one another.

We loved seeing so many of you there — take a look at some of the brilliant photos from the day! 📸

Let’s talk facts, not fear ✨

There are so many myths and misconceptions around cancer—and we’re here to change that.

Each week, we’ll focus on a different topic, from early warning signs to specific cancers such as cervical and prostate cancer. Our Cancer Champion will help break things down in a clear, approachable way, so you leave feeling informed and empowered.

We’ll also be sharing helpful handouts and posts in different formats to suit everyone.
