Our Fantastic Support

We would like to say a big thank you to Furness Cancer Support Group who kindly donated £500 to the St Mary's Hospice at Home service.

The Furness Breast Cancer Support Group aims to provide support for people whose lives have been affected by breast cancer including patients, carers, families, friends, the bereaved and anyone requiring information.

Not all problems are medical and some people don't always feel like talking to the doctor. It sometimes helps to share worries with someone who may have been through the same. The group sessions offer advice and support in a friendly environment so that people should not feel isolated or alone.

The ladies also work tirelessly to raise money for the charity and we greatly appreciate their support.

If you would like further information about the group meetings please contact Dorothy Dawes on 01229 822306 or Margaret Watkins on 01229 822470.
