For World Cancer Day 2025 we teamed up with our wonderful community to create a short film about life post-cancer.
This project was created by people who’ve had cancer, for people who’ve had cancer. And we are incredibly grateful to each of you.
We hope that by creating and sharing this video, it will highlight the power of personal stories xxxxxxxxxx
What is the message this World Cancer Day?
The campaign this World Cancer Day places people at the centre of cancer care and their stories at the heart of the conversation. Every experience with cancer is unique and it will take all of us, united, to create a world where we look beyond the disease and see the person before the patient.
We are so grateful to our community for taking the time to participate, share, and support one another during our Shape Your Cancer Story workshop.
This empowering session provided individuals who have completed cancer treatment with the opportunity to write and share their unique cancer story. The workshop celebrated diverse cultural and personal cancer experiences in Waltham Forest, creating a space for inclusivity, connection, and mutual support.
The event brought together a diverse community, celebrating resilience and inclusivity through shared cancer stories. We’re proud to have created a space that encouraged connection, fostered hope, and aimed to improve mental wellbeing and reduce isolation within the local community.
Thank you to the Waltham Forest Council Fellowship Fund for their generous support, which made it possible for us to host the Shape Your Cancer Story workshop and produce the World Cancer Day video.
Are we saying thank you to anyone else here who helped us with the video?
