Target Ovarian Cancer
Let’s Connect: Target Ovarian Cancer communities
The national charity Target Ovarian Cancer is setting up a network of local peer support groups for women with a diagnosis of ovarian cancer.
These peer support groups will be:
- Regular face-to-face get-togethers in local venues.
- A safe space to talk openly within a social group of peers.
- For small groups of 8-10 women.
- Of no cost to the group members.
- Run every month by a volunteer from within the group or by a locally based Health care professional.
As soon as around six women with a diagnosis of ovarian cancer within the same area express an interest in joining, we’ll set up a group.
How can I get involved?
If you have a diagnosis of ovarian cancer, would like to attend or are interested in facilitating a peer support group, please contact Pamela, Project Lead:
