Are you interested in supporting people who are living with cancer?
We’re seeking an empathetic volunteer to support our Senior Occupational Therapist to deliver the Macmillan HOPE or “Take control” course. The course is for people who have had cancer or who are currently relatively stable with their illness. It provides education, support and self-management strategies for people to manage their condition more independently.
You may have personal experience of living with cancer, or just want to support others.
