SUMMARY:Men's support group - 'Tricky conversations'
DESCRIPTION:The Leukaemia Foundation runs regular online support groups. This one is for men. \nThe Leukaemia Foundation tells us that ‘Sharing the news of a blood cancer diagnosis can be challenging & confronting.

Together\, we will discuss the group’s experiences\, share strategies to ease the discomfort & build confidence in having these conversations.’ \nThe Leukaemia Foundation advises that these groups are interactive in nature & your participation is valued.  Where possible\, they encourage cameras to be turned on for the session to create a warm and safe environment for all participants. \nGroup sizes are limited so registration is essential. \nTo register and for more information – see HERE. \nShare to:
