This episode of the RG10 Podcast traces the inspiring journey of My Cancer, My Choices, a Charvil-based charity making a difference in the lives of those battling cancer.
It has recently been handed the King's Award for Voluntary Services, the equivalent to an MBE for charities.
The episode looks at the profound impact of complementary therapies provided by the charity to cancer patients, offering a glimpse into the calm and caring environment they create.
Co-founder Mandy Barter shares her personal experience with cancer and how it led to the establishment of My Cancer, My Choices in 2009. The charity, run by dedicated volunteers and funded through donations, offers acupuncture, reflexology, scar tissue massage, oncology massage, aromatherapy, mindfulness courses, yoga, and art therapy.
The episode features Claire Grove, a cancer survivor who benefited from the charity's services, including mindfulness and aromatherapy massage. Claire emphasises the importance of taking a pause from the medical routine and recommends My Cancer, My Choices to others facing similar challenges.
You will also hear from volunteer therapist Anne Thomas, who specialises in oncology massage and reflexology. Anne shares heart-warming stories of emotional releases and transformative experiences from patients undergoing complementary therapies.
