Everything you need to know about our brand new website!
We exist to improve the lives of everyone impacted by cancer in our community, as well as helping others understand and recognise the signs and symptoms of cancer, and to seek appropriate support sooner rather than later.
We want to help the community throughout Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin, and Mid-Wales, live life well – before, during and after cancer.
Whilst we will continue to keep fundraising through our cancer appeals for equipment to support cancer treatment, we are also working to help prevent cancer, encourage patients to seek treatment earlier, and support people to live their lives well – during and after treatment.
The LiveLife Cancer Awareness Service has been launched to deliver a meaningful impact on the wider community, helping people have a greater understanding about cancer, how we can live healthier lives to try and prevent it, and where to turn for assistance if there are any concerns.
Cancer Doesn’t Wait. It doesn’t discriminate. It can and does affect everyone regardless of gender, social status, race and religion.
iCan is a cancer support service run by our health partners Lifestyle Fitness. It is aimed at those going through cancer, as well as those living beyond treatment, to encourage and support people to live an active lifestyle and look after themselves mentally, emotionally and physically.
We are working in partnership with Shropshire ICB to raise awareness about cancer in the wider community with a particular focus in groups where English is not their first language. We want to work with community volunteers to support and train them to become cancer champions, helping them encourage their peers to be more cancer aware.
Kick Cancer is a fitness service delivered by Shrewsbury Town in the Community for us. This free to access health programme has been designed especially for cancer patients.
We couldn’t do the work we do without our amazing volunteers and because of this we’re always looking for new enthusiastic supporters to join us.
