The East of England Cancer Alliance’s Patient Partnership Group would like to invite you to attend their online events.
The patient group have all experienced cancer themselves, or cared for someone with cancer, and are putting on a series of talks and information sessions designed to raise awareness and give people an opportunity to ask any questions of our expert speakers or experienced patients. We hope that you can join us.
Let's Talk About Cancer - side effects from common cancer treatments and medications.
Our next Let's talk About Cancer event will take place on 4 March 2025 from 6.30pm to 7.30pm.
Join us online to learn more about the side effects from common cancer treatments and commonly used medications. We will hear from Sarah Sheppard, Lead Community cancer Nurse at Peterborough City Hospital. Being diagnosed with cancer and facing cancer treatment can be daunting, emotionally and physically challenging for people. Sarah will share her experiences as a Community Cancer Nurse on how to reduce some of the impacts, or cope with the side effects. We will also hear from a member of the public about their own experiences. There will also be an opportunity for you to ask questions.
