Attendees also enjoyed a talk by Phil Cook of Involve about the work of Cancer Champions – one of the chosen charities of the Mayor – in the Wokingham Borough.
Cancer Champions provides information to those who have had a diagnosis, and their loved ones, to ensure that they get all the support they need. It particularly focuses on the aftercare of patients who have undergone cancer treatment and has been supported by Involve, who support voluntary, community and faith groups across the borough.
