This is a unique service, designed specifically for people living with and beyond Cancer. Partnering & funded by with Macmillan were able to offer people four free individual sessions:
- An opportunity to let go of treatment burden.
- An opportunity to rebuild/ develop confidence and self-esteem.
- An opportunity to engage with a non-judgemental service for support and self-development
- An opportunity for empowerment and setting goals
Important Information:
- Access to four funded individual sessions over an 8-10 week period ( any further sessions have to be self-funded or alternatively funded.
- The project is a pilot and people are being asked to complete questionnaires to before and after as we want to help explore whether what we do works on a larger scale.
