So many exciting things happening at Hive Cancer Support this week!

We’ve started to roll out our Buzz Roadshow to schools & youth groups across the North West.

Not only will they be some of the first children to meet our Chief Environmental Officer Buzz, but they’ll get a beautiful planter to create a mini bee garden.

Thank you to the hugely talented Sarah & all the team at for making our dreams a reality!

We’d like to say a HUGE Hive thank you to David Gilliland of Brookhall who not only donated a ton & a half of woodchip to transform our allotment but personally delivered it too.

Just look at the difference it makes - talk about a glow up!! ✨

Our organic allotment is just one of the activities we offer to people living with or recovered from cancer.

Huge thanks to the Rainbow Project’s Macmillan Cancer Support Cancer Champions for inviting us to their recent Pride Coffee Morning!
A great chance to reconnect with our community colleagues, put faces to names & share our work with some new faces too! 🏳️‍🌈🌈

We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who joined us for our Pride Coffee Morning last week at the Macmillan Support Centre, at Altnagelvin Area Hospital 😊

It was wonderful to bring people together to share a cuppa, connect with others who have been impacted by cancer, and engage with health and social care professionals about the work being done to support our communities ☕

Opportunities to come together like this help raise awareness of the unique experiences and challenges LGBTQIA+ people may face when affected by cancer, while creating space for meaningful conversations and shared learning 🏳️‍🌈

We had a fantastic morning and are already looking forward to the next one! A special thank you to the amazing team at the Macmillan Support Centre for helping make the morning such a success 💚
