Life-saving training for our support group

Yesterday our cancer support group had a special first aid and defibrillator training day thanks to St John’s Ambulance. 

The session was a great chance for the group to get together and learn some vital skills that could help save someone’s life in an emergency.

As well as supporting patients, we believe in helping those living with cancer to thrive, learn and grow. That’s why, thanks to our supporters, we offer informative sessions and trips for patients alongside regular cancer support meetings. 

We’ll also soon be launching our Survivorship Pack, which aims to help men living and beyond with cancer to thrive. The Survivorship Pack is a physical book that helps to guide men through all parts of their cancer journey, offering reassurance and insight from those who’ve walked a similar path. 

Stay tuned to hear more about the Survivorship Pack after its launch next month.

If you or someone you know is affected by prostate, testicular or penile cancer, our free patient and family support groups across Devon and Cornwall offer a space to connect with others who understand what you’re going through.
