"Grateful for my complementary therapies!"

About: Fern Centre

(as a staff member posting for a patient/service user),

I am very grateful for the complementary therapies that I was offered (massage/reiki). They helped me relax and improved my well-being during my cancer treatment, which is so important.

The Fern Centre is a lovely place to go, with welcoming and friendly staff- they have teas, coffee and there is always someone to talk to if you have any questions. They also offer free workshops like 'Look Good Feel Better' which I attended and I found it very helpful. It helped me feel more confident about my appearance as it showed me how to draw my eyebrows/ apply make-up products when I lost my eyebrows due to chemo. Also you get to meet other people in the same situation.

Thank you to all the volunteers who work at the Fern Centre, you make such a difference in our lives during such a challenging time!
