Help

We like going to the support group and find there are other people to talk to who understand our situation. We enjoy the company and the activities we do some months. People also share what treatments are available and how to get them.

So pleased I found this group for my mum and my family. Keeps us positive through hard times and it's so good to share experiences.

It’s great to get professional advice from some of the nurses who come along to the meetings.

The social connections with other people who are in the same situation is a real benefit to the group. The feeling that you are not alone in dealing with this horrible disease.

We look forward to our monthly meetings as we enjoy the various activities that are arranged for us to take part in, and the general companionship and friendships of everyone.

I have found the group very supportive and helpful, discussing with others the journeys we all go on. It seems that treatment is improving through different trials that are now available.

I appreciate the various speakers who have come along to the group meetings as well as the different activities that are organised to take part in.

I’m very proud to be part of this group and I hope I can pass on my experience of caring for someone with Mesothelioma with those who have it now.

It’s a very supportive and friendly group - I hope my experience helps others in some way who are also on this journey.

Having the monthly meetings with guest speakers has been really beneficial.

The support group has allowed me to meet other people with the same condition and be able to talk about the diagnosis and way forward. The help and support is invaluable.

The help and support, and contacts with professionals in the health and social sector is a real benefit of the group.

Being able to discuss ways of controlling pain with others in the same situation has been really useful.
