Black Women Rising
blackwomenrisinguk.orgThe Leanne Pero Foundation and Black Women Rising was founded in 2017 by
multi award winning entrepreneur and Stage Three breast cancer survivor Leanne
Pero.
Black Women Rising was created to address the gaps in cancer support services for
Black cancer patients. Mainstream cancer services are not inclusive enough and do
not provide adequate support tailored to the Black and ethnic community. Similarly,
the community are not engaging with medical services which is leading to later
diagnosis and unnecessary deaths at a disproportionate level than women in other
groups.
Our monthly peer support groups are at the heart of our project. We also created the
first all-Black female cancer portrait exhibition which has toured London. We recently
launched our podcast and magazine.
All of this helps to fulfil our aims, which are to empower, raise awareness, promote
wellness within our community and ultimately save lives.

Bosom Friends (Bradford)
Bradford / facebook.com
Bosom Friends is Bradford’s self help and support group for women who are living with or beyond breast cancer. We meet on the 3rd Wednesday of each month at 7pm at the Cancer Support Centre on Smith Lane. The meetings are friendly social events, an opportunity to chat over a cup of tea with other women who have experienced breast cancer. Much of the emphasis is about getting on with life with or after cancer and the content of the evening meeting varies from talks from guest speakers from the medical team, to quizzes, jewellery parties and other fun activities. We hold our annual Fashion Show in October which is always an amazing occasion for women who have/had breast cancer to strut their stuff looking great and feeling fabulous. We have our Pink Tombola at the Baildon Gala in July and hold a Family Christmas party in December. Bosom Friends is a registered charity and we rely entirely on fund raising and voluntary donations. Funds raised are used in a number of ways to benefit women being treated in Bradford, either on an individual basis or to all Bradford women; for example we are recently helped make the Dales Suite at St Luke’s Hospital a pleasant and welcoming place by providing a coffee machine and we have funded a spectacular art display. If you would like more information about Bosom Friends, the meetings or feel you would just like to talk on a one to one basis with someone who has been through the same experience as yourself, please contact us through our Facebook page.

I now specialise in helping others with issues such as stress, anxiety, sleep and concentration.

Cancer On Board

But the badge is only the beginning. Whilst other organisations and charities seek to find a cure and fund research, we’re focused on the immediate need of making journeys to and from treatment a little more bearable.

Counselling with Cancer
counsellingwithcancer.co.ukClaire believes ‘Cancer Changes Everything Forever’ and it is so important to look after yourself Mentally, Emotionally and Physically whether you are the patient, the family or the friend.
Main issues cancer patients have when they come to you:
There are so many reasons clients come to me who have been affected by cancer, some are trying to come to terms with their cancer or diagnosis, or family members are looking for ways of supporting their families or trying to cope with the tragic news, friends are coming to terms with the news and wonder what to say or do, patients feel like they have lost their identity and want to be who they are and not the C word and then of course there is bereavement. Some of my clients are young adults that have been through their teenage years watching their parent be unwell and having to grow up very quickly and then coming to terms with their loss. Cancer is such a destructive disease it leaves a huge ripple effect through their families and friends. Cancer really does affect everyone and everything around them

Drain Dollies
draindollies.co.ukBefore I went in for my surgery I searched high and low for surgical drain bags. I knew I was going to be discharged from hospital with these drains, how was I to manage? I knew I was going to have drains in for at least 12 days and didn't want to be house bound. Equally though I didn't want to get funny looks in the street or feel embarrassed.
Unfortunately hospitals do not readily give out things to contain the drains in for patients use and I saw ladies using plastic carrier bags and pillow cases. It is so inconvenient not having the use of your hands. There is no reason to be house bound after breast surgery by any means, these bags enable you to get out and about which will aid your recovery process. They also come in some really nice patterns and colours to give you that extra boost when your feeling lousy and not so good about yourself.

From Me To You
frommetoyouletters.co.ukSomething as simple as receiving a letter can make the world of difference to a friend or family member suffering from cancer.
We all too often hear that emotional support disappears as patients embark on surgery and treatment, as those close to them just don’t know what to say or how to communicate.
It’s only the cost of a stamp but the effect on the person receiving your letter will be immeasurable.

Black cancer patients. Mainstream cancer services are not inclusive enough and do
not provide adequate support tailored to the Black and ethnic community. Similarly,
the community are not engaging with medical services which is leading to later
diagnosis and unnecessary deaths at a disproportionate level than women in other
groups.
Our monthly peer support groups are at the heart of our project. We also created the
first all-Black female cancer portrait exhibition which has toured London. We recently
launched our podcast and magazine.
All of this helps to fulfil our aims, which are to empower, raise awareness, promote
wellness within our community and ultimately save lives.

At LiveArgyll we want everyone to feel empowered to increase their level of physical activity, as part of enjoying and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Taking part in physical activity during and after cancer treatment can play a huge part in enabling you to take back control. It can help you prevent and manage some of the effects of treatment, such as fatigue, depression, muscle wasting and risks to your heart health.

Macmillan Benefits Advice Service Coventry and Warwickshire
Coventry / coventrycab.org.uk
Living with cancer can be tough on your finances. You might not be able to earn in the same way. You’ll probably spend more on everyday costs like heating and getting around. And it’s hard knowing how to plan ahead. Too often, money worries just get out of control. But we’re here to help. Our benefits advisers can support you by working out the financial help you may be entitled to and helping you to access it. They have specialist knowledge of welfare benefits, tax credits and grants and can offer you up-to-date, invaluable advice. Working in partnership with Coventry Citizens Advice, we provide free telephone and digital benefits advice to people affected by cancer, including carers and families. We can: provide advice on what benefits you could claim if you cannot work, if you are experiencing health problems as a result of treatment, or if you have a low or reduced income; help you with applications for benefit – making calls or filling in forms; help you apply for one-off grants, eg to help with fuel costs, to pay for a convalescent holiday or a new household item; assist you with appealing against decisions on your benefit entitlement; refer you to other support with debt, housing, employment and pensions.

If you are living with cancer in Inverclyde, Inverclyde Leisure in partnership with Macmillan Cancer Support offer a free programme to help you get and stay active. Our activities are suitable for everyone, regardless of where you are in your cancer journey. We’ll ask you a few questions, listen to what you have to say and then discuss ways of making physical activity a part of your life. And it doesn’t matter if you’ve never been a particularly active person. We run classes for all abilities and even activities such as gardening or walking could be part of your programme. Taking part in physical activity during and after cancer treatment can play a huge part in enabling you to take back control. It can help you prevent and manage some of the effects of treatment, such as fatigue, depression and risks to your heart health. And lots of people tell us that it helps them to feel more like their old self. What’s more, Move More Inverclyde classes are open to everyone, whether you’re going through treatment or have long finished. You can even bring along a friend or relative to some activities. And they’re a great place to meet others with similar experiences and to share your support, as well as to help one another stay positive and keep active.

Each person who would benefit from someone to talk to on a one to one basis will be allocated an appropriately trained and supervised volunteer. Volunteers offer a supportive, confidential and non-judgmental relationship, which can assist the person through a difficult time.

Macmillan Cancer Support & Information Service at University Hospitals of North Midlands (Royal Stoke University Hospital)
Stoke on Trent / uhnm.nhs.uk
Our service is provided across two hospital sites, Royal Stoke University Hospital (Stoke on Trent) and County Hospital (Stafford), where you will find an easily accessible centre close to the main entrance on each site. We are here to support anyone affected by cancer. We can also support and advise the immediate family network and beyond including teachers, employers, local charities etc. We have a wide range of high quality and up-to-date cancer information materials on display which may be available in other formats such as CDs, Braille, large print or in other languages so please do ask if any of these are more suitable. We believe that information helps you to make choices, it helps you to find the support you need and it can help you regain some control over what is happening to you or those close to you. We can also signpost and/or refer you to various services and charities, both local and national, depending upon your individual needs. We can apply for a one-off grant to help with the extra cost of having cancer as well as blue badges and adult social care assessments on your behalf. You may just want to come and talk through how you are feeling and we have both staff and volunteer members who have been affected by cancer or cared for someone with cancer who will listen to you. We also offer the H.O.P.E Self-Management Programme and Look Good Feel Better skin and beauty workshops (for patients only). We have a strong partnership with Macmillan Cancer Support since receiving both their support and funding to open our centre in Royal Stoke University Hospital in 2003 which is why we share the name Macmillan in our title. This of course is not to be confused with the local hospice who ‘promotes comprehensive care for those with progressive, advanced disease and a limited life expectancy in order that they may achieve the best quality of life’ and who is affectionately known as the ‘Dougie Mac’.

Richmond's Hope
richmondshope.org.ukRichmond’s Hope provides support for children and young people aged 4-18 years who have been bereaved. The charity provides a safe space for children to work through their grief both verbally and non verbally, to preserve memories of the person who died, to explore their feelings, to be given coping strategies and to understand the impact the bereavement has had on their lives.
As each child’s grief is different, we provide individual programmes of care for each child. Our dedicated team of bereavement workers support children on a one to one basis.
We are also passionate about educating individuals and groups about the language surrounding grief and offer training and interest visits. The training we offer to external organisations aims to raise awareness of young people’s grief and how it affects their lives.

All of the retreats are built around four key elements – surfing, yoga, mindfulness, and specialist workshops.

We know that there is never a good time to have cancer, but younger adults face different issues than their older or younger counterparts - and many of these are not dealt with by traditional cancer support charities and services. Our vision is that every adult in the UK living with cancer in their 20s, 30s or 40s can access the help and support that they need in a way that suits their lifestyle, and that they are a part of a confident, supportive and empowered community of young adults living with cancer.
Our mission is to provide tailored information and peer support for anyone in their 20s, 30s or 40s diagnosed with any cancer. We do this through a range of activities including lunches and drinks evenings, beach walks, multi-day getaways, workshops, online networking, and mentoring. We also have a Plus Ones network that meets in London and our Facebook group and national events are open to everyone from across the UK.

The BRIC Centre
briccentre.bbk.ac.ukBRiC's research aims to reduce anxiety and depressive vulnerability in women with a breast cancer diagnosis and improve quality of life using evidence-based translational neuroscience research. It's main aim is to build resilience.
Resilience is the practice of adaptation, flexibility, and adjustment. When confronted with a life-threatening disease such as breast cancer, options become limited, priorities change, and we struggle to find our new 'normal'. Practicing resilience can help us endure the emotional roller coasters, and manage our emotions more efficiently. Resilience builds on neuroplasticity: the brain's ability to form new neural connections towards better mental and physical health.
