Situation
One in two people will have cancer at some point in their lives. Many people have deferred getting screened during the pandemic, and/or treatments and operations have been delayed. We anticipate a significant increase in the need for our services, and as people come forward for testing and are likely be diagnosed with more advanced stage cancers. Our counselling and other support services will provide support to people as they come to terms with terms with their new situation.
Solution
We provide counselling, emotional support, legal information, end-of-life support, and complementary therapies such as massage, reflexology, acupuncture, reiki, shiatsu and emotional freedom technique. There are meditation, yoga, and tai chi classes, and art, creative writing and book clubs. Online workshops run on topics such as cancer nutrition, managing stress, sleep management, grieving, and aromatherapy. There is also a peaceful space for relaxing and meeting up, and a tranquil garden.
