"Cancer can be a scary and lonely time. I wasn't given much information about Guernsey based groups following my diagnosis. However, following a recommendation from a friend, I decided to go along to a GCS meeting. I haven't looked back since. Everyone at GCS is so friendly and patient. I'm so glad I found this support group."
"Finding others going through what you are also experiencing is such a relief. GCS members are so friendly and knowledgeable. They were able to answer questions that I had about cancer and cancer treatment and made me feel more confident about what I could do to support my wife and her cancer journey."
"The GCS group was such a positive experience, not only for my husband who had the cancer diagnosis, but for myself too. I have made some lifelong friends and still attend the group even though my husband sadly passed away."
🚨Meeting Reminder🚨
Our next meeting is on Thursday 18th September at 7:30 PM at Les Cotils.
We are delighted to confirm that our guest speaker will be Quentin Mascarenhas who is the Senior Oncology Clinical Pharmacist at the PEH.
The meeting will take place in the Reading Room.
To enable us to spend some time with new members we would suggest that newcomers to the group, or members that would appreciate some private time with one of our team please arrive by 7:00 PM.
Our meetings are relaxed, informal and an opportunity to spend time with other members to exchange experiences and support each other.
We kindly request that if you are unwell you don’t attend the meeting. We have some really vulnerable members and it’s important that everyone is as safe as possible.
Looking forward to seeing you all on Thursday!
