Our Wellbeing Champions at Durham recently brought colleagues together for a Macmillan Coffee Morning, raising around £140 while also creating an opportunity to talk openly about cancer awareness and prevention.
The team was joined by a representative from the Cancer Awareness Team at County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust, who shared a range of useful resources and information. The session covered potential warning signs to be aware of, the importance of taking part in screening programmes, and lifestyle changes that can help support better health.
Colleagues also shared their own stories and personal experiences, helping to create an open and supportive conversation around a subject that affects so many people and their families.
A big thank you to everyone who organised the morning, contributed, shared their experiences and came along for a coffee and a chat.
