Connecting Carers With Hope

What is Connecting Carers With Hope?
Great question!! Firstly, 'Connecting Carers With Hope' is the name we chose for our Support Group meetings for those caring for a loved one with cancer.
The idea behind it was harnessing the power of an online community to support each other walk the path of healing a loved one through cancer using more than just conventional alopathic medical treatments.Â
There are so many carers out there struggling to come to terms with the role and all it entails. We created a safe place for caregivers to be themselves once more and freely express what they are going through, their fears, and emotions.
We are blown away by the love and compassion that this group has already shown whilst Tony is supporting someone diagnosed with this horrible disease, so Connecting Carers With Hope is here to give back to the other carers. We acknowledge your drive, passion, courage and commitment in being the primary caregiver. We know this was not a role any of us would have chosen from the shelf of life’s goals, but here we are.
Shared Wisdom
We also love the idea of the carers community coming together for support and shared wisdom. Why not come along and find out whether Connecting Carers With Hope is right for you at this stage in your journey? Discover what it’s like to be with like minded carers on this path and feel the warmth, generosity, kindness and support of feeling seen, heard & understood.
Our meetings are regular informal gatherings, online via Zoom (sorry you do have to bring your own tea and biscuits!)
We've had such lovely feedback about the first few sessions and we truly believe there is a need for the group to continue to grow. We also understand if it's not quite right for some people at this time. There is so much to do. You are doing an incredible job.
