    The Orange Foundation - CEO, Michael Gregory

    The Orange Foundation are doing amazing things for Cancer patients. Specifically funding treatments and more the the NHS either don't provide or will not fund or pay for. It is becming more and more widely known that in addition to the traditional treatments provided by the NHS, Cancer patients need to access other services, products and treatments that can help to fight and beat their illness. For example the Orange Foundation have approved the funding of a course of Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber therapy for me. I would not have been able to access this treatment of it wasn't for the support of Michael and the Orange Foundation charity. This interview not only talks about what they do but also the back story of how they were founded. Sadlly following the passing of Michael's wife due to cancer - who's favourite colour was orange. Hence their name. https://theorange-foundation.org/ Support the show

    Debbie Donnison - In honour of 'Breast Cancer Awareness Month'

    A timely interview - published in Breast Cancer Awareness Month Debbie is living with secondary breast cancer - never having had a primary breast cancer diagnosis. It is extremely rare but it happens. This is a phenomenal interview where Debbie speaks so candidly about living with cancer and shares her story about dealing with her young son beating Leukemia - TWICE!! I am so grateful to have Debbie as my mentor.  Debbie is so pragmatic and philosphical. It was a real pleasure to interview her. An inspiration to all women and anyone suffering their own cancer journey. Thank you Debbie.  Support the show

  7. Emma Hallam - Late effects (of cancer treatment) clinic pioneer

    Emma Hallam - Late effects (of cancer treatment) clinic pioneer

    This is a crucial interview to have carried out with Emma. With survivorship from cancer diagnoses being so high now - over 75%, people are living a lot longer and therefore living with the side effects or late effects of various surgeries and treatments used to beat the cancer itself. Emma's dedication to helping people who are sufferinjg is so apparent in this interview and her understanding and awareness of what survivors go through, lead to a quite unbelievable campaign to source funds, staff and more from the NHS and charity systems, resulting in the first 'late effects clinic' being set up in the UK. Emma's amazing work has lead to there now being over 25 late effects clinics across the UK. Thank you Emma. Support the show

    Chris is an incredible guy. He tells an amazing story about his journey following a blood cancer diagnosis.

Chris is yet another cancer survivor that has gone on to do some incredible work, helping others. Chris set up Simpal (https://www.yoursimpal.com/) and provides mobile phones and contracts to people who NEED internet and phone services but sadly can't afford it.  The number of people that Chris has helped is now in the hundreds and provides a crucial support function for people not just suffering due to cancer but also many other traumas and life affecting situations and illnesses.  Chris is one hell of a guy!
