Good luck Andy for tomorrow!

Andy Pointon brother of Steve Pointon one of our team is taking part in the Cork Ironman on 14 August 2022 to raise much needed funds for us and Macmillan Cancer Support.

The event consists of a 3.8 km swim, 180 km bike ride and a marathon run.

Andy is raising money to support these two charities for personal reasons.

We realise that these are challenging times for families but if you are able to make a small donation to help Andy reach his goal it would be greatly appreciated.

Please can you take the time to support this valuable research that will help patients.
The University of Glasgow has asked us to build awareness of the 'Patient reported outcomes study' by asking patients to complete this survey.
If you have a diagnosis of advanced kidney or liver cancer, we’d like you to take part.
The survey is part of a larger project (the PROMs project) organised by the University of Glasgow and the European Oncology Nursing Society, and will help better understand the patient perspective of living with advanced kidney or liver cancer.
The survey will take you around 15-20 minutes to complete.
Please also note that you don’t have to take the whole survey at once. You can start and then click ‘Finish later’ at the bottom of your screen, and can come back to it when you have time.
To read more about the survey and to start please follow the link below:
