Norwich Big C Support Centre
Their support team is there for anyone affected by cancer at any stage, from diagnosis and treatment, to life beyond cancer. They operate from the Norfolk and Norwich Hospital and a drop in centre at Cromer Hospital
The HOPE course is an opportunity to meet and make friendships with other cancer survivors. The groups share experiences in facilitated discussions and group activities. The course runs for 6 weeks for 2.5 hours each week. The sessions are delivered by trained HOPE facilitators. Course dates are available in both Norwich and Cromer.
The course is a 6 week programme designed to support people who have completed their cancer treatment or who are currently living long term with cancer. During the course we explore themes including body image changes, relationships, sleep management, diet and nutrition, concerns for the future and managing setbacks. Through facilitated discussions and practicing self-management techniques including mindfulness, goal setting, pacing diaries and many other tools, we support attendees to feel more empowered and positive following their cancer experience.
