BUDDY SYSTEM

The Buddy System is a setup support of volunteers that will sit with the diagnosed cancer patient at the hospital. Whether it be a scan day, result day, or even chemotherapy, the Buddy Volunteer will be the hand to hold, the shoulder to lean on, or the second head to receive any information that may not be retained by the patient going through the diagnosis. Buddies are people who know what it is like to be alone with your fears and can offer a listening ear and comfort at a time of need.

BondedThruCancer feels it is more important that the diagnosed patient has a chance to focus on coping with the cancer diagnosis, and their wellbeing to fight the disease.

Support groups are very important in the fight with cancer as sometimes this is the only way that those diagnosed with cancer can relate to one another due the similarities of their cancer and stage of their journey.

So at BondedThruCancer... we have found that our support groups work by having sessions that can more support the need of each individual and the different  stages of the cancer journey,  

WORKSHOPS WITH A LIFE CHANGING DIFFERENCE

We at BondedThrucancer have redesigned our workshops to be able to meet the greater needs of the cancer community. We will educate you on cancer, diet, and exercises that can assist you to cope through a diagnosis. We have qualified Instructors and facilitators that will deliver the information necessary for better outcomes. We are inclusive of friends and families attending our workshops, because often those diagnosed with cancer do not want to be a burden to their families, and friends, and become isolated. Families begin to feel helpless and unsure of how to help their loved ones. So we at  BondedThruCancer will equip families, and friends with the tools to understand what the cancer patient might be feeling and how they too can cope themselves whilst supporting the patient through their diagnosis with hopes into recovery.
