The Ribbon Cancer Support Group have had a Festive Week

Name: The Harpenden Trust
Address: Harpenden Trust Centre, 90 Southdown Road, Harpenden, Hertfordshire, AL5 1PS, United Kingdom
Telephone: 01582 460457

Firstly, a Christmas Party! There was music, games, delicious food and mulled wine. It was so lovely to share the festive spirit together. It was the last meeting of 2023 as everyone is getting busy with their holiday preparations.

A wreath-making session led by Mhairi and her two assistants from Harpenden Evening Floral Group turned out to be a big success much enjoyed by everyone. It was amazing to see how creativity and the Christmas spirit filled the room. Thank you Mihari for opening the festive season at RCSG.

Working with the Harpenden Trust, and backed by Macmillan, the Ribbon Cancer Support Group runs every Wednesday afternoon at the Trust Halls in Southdown and provides a safe space where people with a cancer diagnosis can meet and connect with other people who share similar experiences.
