Event Description

The Hope Programme for people living with cancer was co-created with people living and affected by cancer and with researchers at Coventry University to make sure it is rooted in science and supported by Macmillan.

Do you want to enhance your resilience through these difficult times, rediscover strengths and increase your ability to cope? 

Get support and share experiences at our free six-week course for people who have been affected by Cancer.

Each week we will cover topics like:

• smarter goal setting • priorities and values

• living positively with fears for the future • character strengths

• physical activity • eating well

• managing stress • coping with fatigue • finding things to be thankful for

 

The course includes quizzes, worksheets, audio and video materials, interactive gratitude and goal setting and social networking via email and forums.

Hope aims to teach participants how to become more relaxed, improve confidence in setting positive goals, learn stress and fatigue management skills and explore any worries experienced when dealing with cancer.

 

Weekly from Tues 24 Jan to Tues 14th March 2023

2.00 pm – 4.30 pm at the Guys Cancer Centre, Gordon Hub
