When I first had my breast cancer diagnosis confirmed, it was a shot to the heart. My practical side did kick in swiftly and I contacted the SECHC on leaving the hospital. I had driven past the centre and seen their advertising for many years.

Joining the centre in 2015 was one of my best decisions and undoubtedly made an enormous difference to my recovery from bowel cancer. I had the benefit of counselling from one of their very professional team which helped me deal with the present and restructure my future. A nutritionist analysed my diet and regulated my food intake to make sure my energy levels had a chance to build up.

I was told about the Prostate Cancer Support Group by a Macmillan nurse in 2017 when I was first diagnosed as having prostate cancer. I didn't think that I needed such a Group as I believed that I was a straightforward case.
