General Day Blood Cancer Support Group

Topic: Coping with festive occasions

Festive seasons can be a joyous time of year for many. However, for people living with blood cancer, this time of year can bring out feelings that are not all joyous. In this session, we will explore the meaning we place on festive occasions, how they can amplify feelings of grief and loss, and some helpful hints to assist to take care of yourself and make the most out of these occasions.

These groups are interactive in nature & your participation is valued.  Where possible, we encourage cameras to be turned on for the session to create a warm and safe environment for all participants.

Group sizes are limited so registration is essential.
