| Generous funding made to support the 'Qube Friends' Project Qube has been awarded crucial funding from The National Lottery Community Fund to support their 'Qube Friends' project. The project will support those in the community who are lonely and isolated by hosting additional social groups and activities. Plus, it will also support those who lack the confidence to attend activities, are housebound, or have conditions that affect their ability to socialise and meet within a safe space e.g. dementia sufferers and their carers by kickstarting a befriending programme.

Cancer Champions boost resources with the addition of multi-lingual videos The Cancer Champions team has been working on some fantastic resources to increase awareness about the importance of cancer screening and improve uptake in the area. They have produced a series of multi-lingual videos in Mandarin, Punjabi, Ukrainian, Bulgarian and Polish. The videos focus on breast, bowel and cervical cancer, as well as a general video to highlight the signs and symptoms of cancer. They are available to download and view by visiting the Cancer Champions website. |
