Support Groups
Our Support Groups
At Olive Tree Cancer Support, we offer a range of support groups designed to bring people together in a safe, relaxed, and welcoming environment. Our groups provide an opportunity to meet others who may be facing similar challenges, to share experiences, exchange advice, and offer mutual support.
We kindly ask that you contact the centre before attending your first session to confirm that the group is running that week.
The Secondaries Club
The group offers an opportunity for people with dealing with the challenges of a secondary cancer diagnosis to talk openly about their experience and to receive support from each other. Speakers are also invited to give talks & demonstrations on topics of interest. If you are living with secondary cancer, you are warmly invited to come along. The group meets on the 1st Wednesday of each month at 1p.m.
