Feedback from our first meeting

MEN’S CANCERS SUPPORT SECTION

We are pleased to advise that our Men’s cancer support section is now up and running and we had a very good first meeting on 25th February supported by three healthcare professionals from the Great Western Hospital.  It was good to see so many men present, and a really beneficial discussion/ question and answer session between them and the Healthcare Professionals made the evening an informative one.

 

We also had a very lively discussion at our second meeting on 18th March when we had a gentleman talking about Macmillan benefits.

 

Our aim is to give men the opportunity of talking to other men, in the hope that they will be more at ease with their problems and find the comfort and support they need.

 

Do please come along to our next meeting. Perhaps you would like to bring along your suggestions as to what speakers / outings, etc.  you, the members, would like to see us provide for you.

 

Future meetings are currently planned for:

15th April - venue changed to The Navy Club, Harding Street.

13th May, 10th June, 8th July, 

9th September, 7th October, 4th November, and 2nd December .

Venue: Lawn Community Centre, unless stated otherwise.

Time:  7.30 – 9.30pm

(These dates/venue may change.)  Watch the website, or contact Fred.

..... I found the first meeting of men’s only cancer group to be very constructive and look forward to future meetings.

..... Please accept my thanks for setting up the men’s cancer group. I will certainly attend all further meetings. Ted Brewer
