ONLINE SUPPORT GROUPS

[ConnectRoyCastle]

Our support groups are such a good way to connect with other's in a similar situation, they have really helped so many people make friendships and gain valuable knowledge around their treatment and care. If you have any queries about anything please get in touch, we would love to hear from you and help in any way that we can.

All online groups are held over Zoom, last for one hour and are hosted by a trained facilitator.

Thanks for republicising these valuable groups. People often under-estimate the support and friendships these offer - not only when they take place but in between and later on too. Learning how others have coped or are coping can make us all feel less alone with our conditions and their impact on our lives. Having a carers' space is also really important - as their needs even if they don't see themselves as 'carers' but simply supporting their loved ones is frequently underestimated. thanks for all you do to support those affected by lung cancer.
